Comcast is testing an interesting new feature for their X1 cable boxes: social media notifications.
Starting now, Xfinity users who have X1 can have personalized notifications through their TV screens. Users can get notifications from Gmail, Twitter, Facebook, Jawbone, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Evernote and many more.
The notifications are powered by IFTTT, which lets users create conditional instructions for when notifications will launch on their TV screens. This will allow users to curate when and what notifications will appear on their TV.
