Real-time notifications give a sense of activity, nice for building a community. Reminds me of <a href="http://listen.hatnote.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://listen.hatnote.com/</a> showing live wikipedia edits, but more integrated. Some anonymity, or mention of a group, e.g. anonymous users, forum member, admin, would be better. Too much and too specific sharing of activity makes this feel stifling--more like chat with read notifications, less like email or forum where people take time to compose replies.
