This is great! I used to just use XMPP for this (so send an XMPP message to myself), but I guess having a push notification can mean you can do more powerful things with it.


But, XMPP is push all by itself already, and works with mobile push notification services where needed.


Yeah, that's why I used it. It was simple and awesome!

What I meant is that by supporting push notifications directly, you can do things like supporting action buttons, open a link when clicking the notification, etc, rather than just XMPP which was what my solution did.
