Do other major browsers (Firefox, IE, Safari, Opera) have a built-in desktop notifications API like the one Chrome has?

If so, please leave a link to their documentation.

The notifications that Chrome has built in is based on the W3C Web Notifications specification.

As of today, the only browser that support THIS SPEC is Chrome. You can find a listing of browser support at CanIUse.com
