A notifications window just before my user name.
A notifications window just before my user name. I like it, it is cool, but how long has it been there? Do you like it too?
Yes, I do like it. It is a convenient feature because I can see the latest comments on the hubs that I am following without the step of opening my email. As for when it was there, I wasn't aware of it until today.
Yes it is a new ,good feature on HubPages. I like it too as now it is a lot easier to check the latest comments. And it just appeared today and i am absolutely enjoying it .
Definitely, I have to agree with you it is making our work easier. We don't have to keep on checking our mails for recent happenings.
Just seen this, and it is a very cool feature and has overcome one of my pet peeves.
When I get emails from HubPages, clicking the links open it in Safari. However I do not use Safari myself so I then have to copy the link into Firefox so I can see the latest notification. Now I can go straight to Firefox to check the notifications, now to just turn off the email alerts.
I've only just noticed this too and I must say that I like it. It's in a convenient spot and saves time looking for any notifications. Well done Hubpages.
I also noticed it today. But it is a very useful feature. I like it and it saves time.
I noticed it today. Was wondering how long it had been there. Answers to this question assured me that it is a new feature. It is great. Makes life easier. Thank you HubPages team.
I just noticed it yesterday. Another hubber asked about it an I am afraid I gave them wrong info. But this is kinda cool because you can be editing or reading other stuff and know what's happening without checking your feed or your email.
I noticed it today and as I can't always get to the main computer in our house to read emails it's a great little addition. So far I've found it really handy to see whats going on in the world of Hubs and Hubbers.

I just went to Google to search my URL (cardia.hubpages.com) to see how it ranks, and I noticed that articles and other things by another Hubber who has a really similar name to mine (she has an extra letter in it)is showing up, and not mine at all.I was just wondering if this would hurt my...

I find it quite intriguing and often wonder how a user name is chosen...some of the names are quite easy to guess others I bet have most likely funny little anecdotes to go with the choice...My user name is really very ordinary Zsuzsy being a Hungarian form of Suzanne and the Bee well, my teenage...

I see some Hub writers using their real names while others use nicknames or aliases. How did you come by yours?I registered mine before I even realized that "hopping" Hubs was a thing! My last name is Hopper and I just thought it would be a cute name. I was a little...

Is it best to use a pen name or your real name on HP, and how easy is it to change your user name?I am considering a change of name here on HP, and wondering what the implications would be. Has anybody done it, or have an opinion about it?

Hey all, Can i change my username w/out having to create a whole new acct. I did not know that your username came up each time the hub appears when I created it. I would have picked something a bit more saucy or creative, not my initials and what not. Anyways, let me know, k kiddoo!
