Hi, Trillian.

Do you mean that it's using Node on the server to build a real-time
chat in a browser window, when you navigate to a site running on some
foreign server?

No, there's no way to do that using Node.  (After all, it's not Node
on your computer, it's on theirs, so you'd *hope* it couldn't have
access to your phone or growl!)

There is an HTML5 notification API, which sounds a bit like what
you're looking for. Check out
http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/notifications/quick/
Of course, you'll have to modify the page's JS to use the API, so if
it's just some thing that you're a user of, you're going to have to
get the devs to update it.

You could potentially write a node program that runs on your computer
and hits the server's web endpoints, and then does some fancy stuff.
That might be cool.

Have fun!
