I wanted to respond to someones else's post about Windows phone's notification
system and I ended up creating something and showing it to a few people they
thought it was cool enough so I like I'd share.





here is a quick explanation ,


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The notification tile/hub acts like a normal tile on the homescreen . It flips
and rotates different notifications as shown in the gif, but based on the
setting it can also be static.

when double pressed like launching an app it expands to fill the rest of the
screen , all this happen on the home screen. The remaining apps darken like it
does when moving around live tiles and the notifications show up as shown int he
second image. you close it and it returns to the normal home screen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SIDE NOTE:
I have zero developer knowledge but am quite good design and using a cooked
ROM version of WP7.8 I can olnly imagine what can
be done with Windows Phone. Any one who finds this cool enough and have
developer experience can contact PM me. Maybe we can work to
have this work on Windows Phone
.

very good idea!
hopefully some coders like ultrashot,heathcliff74 and of course all other coders have time to look into it...

First one is debatable, but I dislike the notification tile concept, the live-tiles itself are notifications, so there is no need for an extra tile to 'mirror' the other tiles.
It's sort of contracting to the Live-Tile concept even.

I agree with you that the live tiles itselfs are notifications... but with a notification tile, you dont need additional tiles like E-Mail, Messages,..
One Tile with all notification, where you can see all incoming mails, messages,... and i would be great if you can open your mails from this notification tile directly

Interesting concept, but very hard to make. I don't think there is an easy way to intercept notifications from other apps. Expanded view is also something new on the platform, so it could require OS itself to be patched. Personally, I don't think it can be done, but good luck with the project.

Looks awesome, but wouldn't every single app need to be patched to send notifications to the tile? Like Facebook, twitter, blah blah?

Yeah i thought so too, the most difficult part will be to intercept notification from the apps, which seems quite impossible .. but one can only dream,
