If there is a notification system like facebook then it will be cool . If anyone contribute a problem to brilliant, after some days he get email from brilliant website about his contributed problem, but if there is notification system then we will get notifications and I think it's better than email . I can give another example :
If new comments on a discussion are submitted then we get email but notifications are better than email .Some days ago the Hunger Games Tournament started and we got email about it but if we got notification it would be easier to receive that news. So, brilliant should enrich these systems .
If we have any question about brilliant website which is not in FAQ , why we need to do that through email. If there is a system in brilliant where we can directly ask question to brilliant from this website then it will be better than this.
I have seen that , a man has threated brilliant comity to deactivate his account otherwise he will say the answers of number theory problems in level and level . For deactivation we also depend on email but if there is a deactivation option in account settings then we will not to depend on email .So, I think brilliant comity will take steps about these facts to enrich their website.

I agree with you i think notification will be helpful. Not only facebook who is use notification -_-.
When i post a discussion or a solution in Brilliant i need notification to know that someone has reply or respond to my solution so i can reply back. In a kind of that think
that's a pretty good idea. I don't think it's gonna make brilliant look like facebook...... other sites also have this type of notification system....... "sending email"-system is so time killing and boring...... I think brilliant's going to be look good if this system starts....... (I'm not saying that it's bad looking now, but it'll be sort of "better")
hey brilliant is cool like this. we are here learning and exploring the talent we have got. there is no meaning to get cranky like facebook. brilliant should not be like facebook,itz awesome the way it is

Getting on-site notifications instead of emails keeps it the way it is, and I'd see that as an improvement. However, Brilliant is not the right place to post statusses and share locations.
We don't want that Brilliant will be like Facebook. But, we just want improving this site.
