Notify by Facebook - Notifications that matter from sources you love

Wasn't quite sure what value I was going to get when I signed up for this, but I just received a timely / valuable notification about a gunman right near my house. I'm going to mark this as a pretty remarkable 'aha' moment for me and Notify. Great job to those involved! When FB is notifying me of highly relevant tweets that Twitter never even surfaces for me, doesn't get much better than that.

What is it that Facebook wants to get out of this app - another app to keep track of the news - I mean, I don't use Facebook to find the latest news...

The notification shade is the new home screen.

It's so annoying to get an email where I spend some of my time reading about a great app, and then I decide I want to get the app, but.... "Not available in your country". Not again. :(
