Apple released a sneak peek of their new OS, Mountain Lion today. It looks to be a small update, similar to what Snow Leopard was to Leopard, which would explain the naming conditions. Apple is continuing down the path of integrating iOS into their desktop OS, a move that I completely enjoy.

My favorite part of this sneak peek is the move of Notification Center to OS X. I’ve been putting off upgrading to Growl ever since they moved to a paid service, and have been missing notifications updates ever since. Notifications on iOS has been essential to my iPhone workflow since it’s release, and I believe it will do the same on the desktop as well.
