I installed it when i installed Adium. Still not exactly sure what it does, besides superimposing notices about IMs and Downloads being completed

Yeah, but I use the least invasive mode, Nano. When working on multiple monitors I sometimes don't notice when a chat window or something pops up, so growl helps keep me aware of these happenings.

I used to, back when I liked a super tricked out system but it got tiring quickly. Even though I think they look kinda cool, I'm much better off without my computer giving me constant notifications.

its pretty handy sometimes, i like it with transmit and coda

yeah, it was installed when I installed adium, but I see it's services being used with some other apps. a little stealthy for my tastes, but I'm open to apps sharing components.

yeah i really like it, works with my AIM/twitter/last.fm/coda/cyberdu...
i also use two monitors and it's a godsend for IMs in the other window. the only problem is that i often switch back to AIM and type a response without noticing that the wrong chat window is up. so many "sorry, wrong window"s due to Growl but it's worth it i think.

thanks guys.
yeah, apparently the new version of omnifocus works with growl too... that sounds interesting to me as well.

I use it, but not to it's full potential. A lot of the programs that use it I have ticked off because I usually get the updates elsewhere.
