Cool! Curious why this is safari only... does it use a special api?

"push notifications for websites" is a OS X thing, it does't actually require your browser to be open I believe.

Yeah, Safari doesn't even need to be open. I use Chrome as my main browser but subscribe to interesting things with Safari.
