CodeWalr.us Post Notifier [Windows] [Mac] [Linux]

Hey, everybody!
As I already said, I've been working on a PC version of a CodeWalrus Post Notifier.
The notifier will run on Windows, Linux and Mac.
It's written in C#, without WinForms but with GTK and is 100% Mono compatible. Target framework is .NET 4.0 but could be even lower.

The source code is (yeah, this time I'm publishing source!) available under the MIT Licence at GitHub:
http://github.com/muessigb/CodeWalrii-Notifier/
Additional helping hands are as always welcome!
The only requirements is Xamarin Studio or the OSS alternative to it.

It'll set your PC on fire and that will trigger the fire alert

No I guess there will be an optional sound and the message will pop up on the lower right corner of the screen.
There will also be a main UI which shows the latest 10 posts (or more) and allows to configure the application.

I'm working on the design of the main window right now.
I don't think anybody has ever seen this design before

Here's a screenshot:

Looks good will it startup automatically or will you have to launch it? I would like to chose... I guess you could drop it in the start up folder for windows

Autostart isn't too hard. I will implement it

Could there be a choice because I was talking about it for other people because I wouldn't want it since my dad could boot up my computer and see... that would be bad

No, of course will it be optional.

Yeah last time I had something do that it was my unknown to him steam account and it didn't turn out well

Post decoding is working

Hey look it's my post

I like the result so far.

Alerts and optional sound are definitively a must, as long as they don't steal window focus (I hate when TI-Nspire Student software does that. The worst part is that it does it three times when the software loads, so you have to sit there waiting 1 minute for it to load, doing nothing.
