##About

I like to check StackOverflow for new questions to answer. I spend a lot of time refreshing the My Tags tab on the Unanswered page. Well, those days are over, I can now freely roam the Internet or even use other applications, whenever a new question is posted to my favorite Stack Trilogy site which has my chosen tags I get a Desktop Notification like the one seen in the screenshot above. If I'm interested in the question I click on the "New! Q" button next to omnibar in Google Chrome and a new tab will be opened with that question. UPDATE: I can also just click in the link on the notification itself! It's that easy! 

UPDATE: You can choose if you want to see questions with any of your tags or all of them. You can also specify a list of Ignored Tags. Any question that has one of those will be ignored. All settings are made on the options page which you can get to by right clicking on the New Q! button circled below:

###UPDATE To Version 0.7
Fixed several bugs.
Added comment notification now if you enter you user ID on the options page you'll get notifications when people @reply to you in comments:

##How it works
This is done with a Google Chrome extension which checks every minute or so for new questions with the desired tags using jQuery and the StackExchange API. If a new question is found a Desktop Notification is sent up using WebKit's implementation of the HTML5 Desktop Notification system. The tags and site you are interested in are set using the options page which can be accessed by right clicking the new "New! Q" button. These settings are stored in HTML5 local storage.
