If you’ve been getting strange messages from Websites asking for permission to send you push notifications, you are not alone. This is actually a new feature in OS X Mavericks. If a Website supports this feature, you will be asked if you want to receive alerts the first time you visit their site. If you accidentally permitted such alerts don’t worry – you can always fix it from Safari’s Preferences.
