 It would be helpful if there were an (optional) audio cue
 that you have been invited to share an Activity---sort of
 like a doorbell.

 Lots of times I'm in the middle of
 something (or even not looking at my XO) and I don't
 notice that someone is trying to share.  By the time I
 notice, '''''if''''' I notice, the person may have logged out
 already.

 A beep, bell, audio sample,... for the alert would
 be great!  It could be customized by activity, user,.. just
 like cell phone ring tones.
