Stack Exchange Notifier is a handy extension that displays your current reputation, badges on selected Stack Exchange sites.
Stack Exchange Notifier is a handy extension for Chrome that displays your current reputation, badges on Stack Exchange sites and notifies you of reputation changes. Also, you will get notified of comments on your own posts (questions and answers) that are not older than 1 year and of any comments that refer to you by @username in a comment, even if you do not own the post (aka mentions).
All StackExchange sites are supported.
Stack Exchange Notifier uses the Stack Exchange API and is powered by Google App Engine for Java.

Stack Exchange is a network of free, community-driven Q&A sites. This extension is not affiliated with StackExchange.com in Any Way.
Warning:
I will be porting extension to not use Google App Engine back-end due to some limitations from API side. New versions of the extension will be making direct calls to Stack Exchange API right from your browser. Please do not expect new versions of the extension any time soon. Sorry.

Currently, you may sometimes experience some issues using extension, but most users will have no problems. You may notice too many errors in the logs, but there is nothing I can do with this now. thanks to all of you for using my little app.
