Notify of changes in other flows
If you have multiple flows it would be really useful to see some sort of count badging around the house/home icon to show you there's been activity in another flow.

Flowdock now has different flows in tabs, and the tabs have new message indicators/counts shown on them.
To restart a trial period you can either sign up again or log in and visit https://www.flowdock.com/trials to get an extension.

Is this feature coming or what is the status? I have multiple flows and it sure is very difficult to have several windows open and then surf between those all the time..

Yea the current solution sucks. I have to keep 8 different tabs for each flow open and there is no support for cross-tab notifications. Why can't you just have one flow open and be notified when there is activity in other flows? The notification in the tab title is not sufficient either.

A notification like the gmail offline app (blinking) would be great

To open multiple tabs in the desktop app, go to File > New Tab, then enter the URL to the other flow in the URL bar above the new tab.
Be sure to turn on session restoring in the app preferences as well, that way all your tabs get reloaded next time you start the desktop app.
That being said, the notification of messages in different tab needs to be way more obvious - having a text-only number at the start of the tab doesn't really stand out, would be great if the tab could change colour or throb or something.

Is it possible to get Chrome/Gears set up similarly as Fluid? I'd love to get all my flows open in different tabs but still as a Chrome web app (so it doesn't get mixed up with my main browser window).

If it helps, you could have flows in separate tabs and then see indicators of new messages in the titles. With the latest build deployed, this is also possible with Fluid.
