It always makes me happy when I find one of mine being used (a rare rhing
in reality) but would surely encourage retention of contributors.

Echo is an absolutely great thing, and I am a heavy echo user, however,
I am not
sure it is scalable. Getting one, two or even ten notifications
per day is ok, but if I start getting dozens, I am not sure I would be able
to handle them for example after a day off. So that I am not sure it would
survive if everybody starts using it heavily.
If notifications are batched, then I think echo would work well for this.
For example, I'd love to see it giving notifications of when photos from
Commons are used in the projects, along the lines of '10 of your photos
were added to Wikipedia articles. Click to expand this notification/find
out more.'
Thanks,
Mike
