did you see the CNN or BBC dekstop news alert software? I want to develop
the same but for banner advertisment and I want to if I should do it as
system tray ir windows services?
A windows service would be a bad choice, they're designed to run at all
times and rarely have interaction with users. The systray, aka the
notification area is there for applications that require infrequent user
interaction to notify the user of some event, or as a place to park.
It sounds like your app would be a reasonable choice for the systray. But
what would you notification are icon do? Although, the thought of having any
kind of banner on my desktop makes my skin crawl :)
