A lot of people ignore their work announcements because "they dont really care" about their jobs/companies (except for the paycheck to cover health/mortgage).. Why should an employee be fully engaged at work when she/he is just a "disposable" part of a machine and can be let go at any time (and should be ok with it because this is how it always was done)?
Ummm they really think company wide emails (that are often pushed to personal cell phones) are not enough? Now lets see it in the browser tab as well? Really? Whats next? Automatically engraved announcements on coworkers foreheads?
The problem is NOT that people "dont have an opportunity to see the announcements" - the problem is that people are not really interested in their jobs. Make job interesting to an employee and truly care about an employee (prove it by action) then people will be more engaged at work!
"Of the country’s approximately 100 million full-time employees, 51 percent aren’t engaged at work -- meaning they feel no real connection to their jobs, and thus they tend to do the bare minimum...Another 16 percent are “actively disengaged” ... feel their needs aren’t being met at work etc."
Even if 10% of employees like their jobs, that's still a market of 10 million people. If somehow this extension could reach them all and bring 1 cent a month per user to it's creator, that's still 1M$ a year for what's probably a week-end project. Not too bad.
And if it end up reaching 1% of this market that's still 10k$ a year.
