Actually I wouldn't have integrated Notifo into HN if I didn't think it deserved it on its own merits. HN is a labor of love for me; I wouldn't integrate random stuff into it just because founders asked me to. Out of 172 companies we've funded, I've only integrated 2 functionally into HN: Clickpass and Notifo, both because I thought they were useful to users.
And webmynd.
That's a neat feature, but it may conflict with 'noprocrast', in that it will drive you mad if you can see that there are replies but you can't read them :) Why 'notifo', why not simply an email address ? That's universal instead of a service that only works with the ipbone.
I never considered it, actually. It was a moot point till a couple months ago because we couldn't send email from the server. Rtm's strategy for security is to install nothing. Eventually I may expand notifications to have more options for type and delivery method.
I approve. :-)
That said, installing qmail is probably not going to open you up to very many attacks...

Furthermore, because Femtoo publishes your tracker notifications as your own personal RSS Feed, you can already access all you notifications from ANY mobile platform that has an RSS Reader.... err. which is pretty much every platform :-) Check it out at http://femtoo.com oh and regarding seed funding for Femtoo.... watch this space...
