As a result, if their friend replies, they won't be aware until they manually check the wave tab.<br /> Having a bot which detects when a browser window/tab is not active and a new wave event occurs (e.g. the other user replying) after there has been a delay of a few minutes since the last wave activity would be useful. Once an alarm has sounded, it should remain silent until the user next activates that tab window (so that the user doesn't get annoyed if they're deliberately ignoring the wave whilst working on something else). </p>
