Anyone who is NOT on Lollipop got Chrome v.42 running?

I'm curious about how many ppl will get the new push notifications from websites functionality. If you're curious about it and want to try it theres a DEMO here.

Yeah it works fine for me. Did the test on your link and got the push notification.

Using a rooted Xperia Z3, Android 4.4.4, Chrome v.42

Nice!

I was worried it would be Lollipop only (and thus severely limiting reach).

If it's not too much of a bother I'd greatly appreciate if you could go to http://www.whatsmybrowser.org/ and then post the link it generates on here.

Oh and I just checked the website you linked to again and it worked fine this time and the Push Notification worked and sent me the weather.
