Hey there! Are you ready to be notified? Well, get ready because National Notification Day is here to shake up your world with all the alerts, updates, and reminders you never knew you needed.
It's national notification day on the 1st May.
Have you ever wondered how we survived before the age of notifications? How did people know when it was their turn in the bathroom? Or when their favorite TV show was about to start? Luckily, we now have the wonders of technology to keep us informed of every little thing happening around us.
National Notification Day was first celebrated on May 1, 2015, and since then, it has been a day dedicated to raising awareness and appreciation for all the different types of notifications we receive on a daily basis.
Whether it's the chirping of your smartphone or the ding of your email inbox, notifications have become an integral part of our modern lives. They let us know everything from breaking news and weather updates to Instagram likes and new follower alerts.
So, on National Notification Day, take a moment to pause and thank all the beeps, boops, and buzzes that keep you in the loop and prevent you from missing out on life's important (and not-so-important) moments.
Celebrating National Notification Day is as easy as 1-2-3 (or a push notification)! Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Did you know that the average person receives over 100 notifications per day? That's a whole lot of buzzing and beeping to keep up with!
The term 'notification' emerged in 1935 and is derived from the Latin word 'notificatio', which means 'notice' or 'announcement'. It originally referred to the act of giving notice or making something known to others.
In 1962, with the advent of advanced telecommunications systems, 'notification' started to take on a new meaning in the realm of technology. It became associated with alerting individuals about new messages, updates, or events through various communication channels.
In 1992, as email gained popularity, 'notification' became closely linked with electronic messaging systems. Users could receive notifications about new emails, allowing for timely responses. Desktop notifications also emerged, enabling users to receive pop-up alerts on their computer screens.
The advent of smartphones in 2007 revolutionized 'notification' once again. Mobile operating systems introduced the concept of push notifications, which allowed apps to send alerts, reminders, and updates directly to users' devices, even when the app was not active.
With the rise of social media platforms, notifications became ubiquitous. In 2010, popular platforms like Facebook and Twitter introduced notification systems to inform users about new friend requests, likes, comments, and mentions. This further popularized the term and its association with staying connected.
In the present day, 'notification' has evolved beyond smartphones and social media. With the proliferation of smart devices and the Internet of Things (IoT), notifications can be received on smartwatches, fitness trackers, smart speakers, and other connected devices. These notifications range from reminders, weather updates, and news alerts to personalized recommendations and automation notifications.
