What I meant by the second is the same way digests are sent out here. Rather than an email per incident, you'd get at most one per day that lists changes since the prior day.
That is true, I do have a created at and updated at time for each thing, so I could highlight those that are new since the last logon. But I'd have to keep track of what they have seen and what they haven't, since if they go into one Universe and fiddle around for a bit they may not have actually seen everything there by the time they log out, nor seen anything in the other Universes they have access to or have created.
