Alert management:
JD points to Haystack, a client side data management interface, like central. The site has a paper called ‘UI continuations‘ which shows an interface for alerts that prompt the user for more info in a better way. One advantage of central is that it allows users to setup rules for routine tasks. It sends alerts which prompt for more information or present new information when a rule is satisfied. The current central interface can do better with a robust alerts interface. Even windows started off with basic bubble alerts. But upcoming Aero has a better alerts feature which supports storing, searching and categorizing of alerts.
