Yes, that's so categorically. Even with reproach towards Growl developers, because it is not so to be implemented the integration of this product with the Center for notifications "Mountain Lion". And even if not quite full, but the plug Bark corrects imperfections in Growl, so all users of the system, said plug-in is highly recommended audiovisual notice.

And if the parameters of notifications Center OS X tapes have given a small number of messages for each program ( Default - all five of them), just imagine how many interesting things you can miss, while you were away for computer!

The situation is largely corrects Bark plugin. Although he did not open a window "Finder", but at least the message groups for different applications, displaying the titles of groups corresponding to the names and icons. After installing the plug-in is built into Growl set of actions. To enable it, open the Growl settings window and go to Notifications (Displays) and in the drop-down list The default action (Default Actions) select Bark (As it does not appear the list, but check mark will appear in the drop-down menu on the left of the name of the plugin).

In short, engage in the usual chores, which are accompanied by notices Growl. And the difference is that will show in their stream Notification Center, you will be pleasantly surprised.
