I built something similar yet different recently. Mine's not really styled (exercise for the user) but offers more control. See here https://github.com/dp/btw with examples here http://quietcode.com/btw/

Since the blog doesn't really add value, the link should probably go directly to the project: http://zacstewart.com/2011/06/18/meow-a-growl-work-alike-for...

I built similar functionality using Pusher recently. Probably the easiest way to multi-cast meow in real-time from browser to browser.

I've been using jGrowl to achieve this. The page I linked to has some good examples on it.

It looks nice but the syntax seems to defy convention. Should be something like: $("#element").click($.meow(args));

meow() is a method, not an event.

So this is basically like jGrowl?

I'm sure something with that many ads is adding value for someone...
