Welcome Audio Notifications

*Chime*

That’s right.  You’ll now hear a chime when you use eduFire and a student requests a session, sends an instant message to you or requests an introduction.  When we released Instant Sessions, well, yesterday, the first thing our teachers said to us was “Make the notifications more apparent”.  Hm… Well lets review what a notification looks like:

And this really illustrates a key difference between how users think and engineers make assumptions.  Jared and I looked at this as “well the buttons are big; heck actually enormous, how can we make them more apparent”.  Our founder, Jon, however made it very clear:

Make it audible!!!

And now you’ve got audio notifications for both teachers and students.  Enjoy.  Our thanks to our users for suggesting this and Jon for helping make it clear.
