Monitor website activity with a tone

[Roseannesunshinevillas]

It would be great if statcounter could add a feature which would alert you with a tone or ping when someone entered your site. Is anything planned for that?

You'll want to add your own scripting for that. The only way any script could do it is to send an email actually. It wouldn't be feasible for Statcounter code to do that, the traffic is immense.

And who would not soon get annoyed after getting several mails every hour, with the same message: "You have a new visitor".

sure, but the scripting has to have some more logic, cookies and whatnot to account for that and only send one email. Why I say use your own script for it.

Was thinking that maybe some p2p applet might interact unless all the security watchdogs have plugged all the holes making them ineffective.

liveperson.com has the facility of a tone every time someone looks on your site. No e-mails are sent. It is a very useful facility.

That's a chat room application itself, probably running either as a java applet or flash constantly refreshing.
