Notifications?

A drop-down box for "Notifications" briefly appeared next to my PM box in the upper right, but after a few more page loads it was gone. Never seen it before. Is this feature supposed to be active or was it a mistake?

New-old notifications!!.

Um... Hi. 'Nice room you got here. Almost-black. Nice..

Edit: And,. now they're gone.. So.. bricks are nice..

I suspect that it's probably something the engineers are just testing out. I think GameSpot separates out notifications and messages in a similar manner, so I'm thinking some of that stuff might eventually feed into GB.

That happened to me too. It scared me, but it went away, so I'm just gonna go about my day whistling a tune and pretending it didnt happen...

@saturdaynightspecials: About 20 minutes ago, I randomly got an email notification that a guy had replied to one of my comments. I got that email, but no PM record of that guy replying to me. I assume that is related.
