Bin über TfsAlert gerade gstolpert und habe es gleich installiert. Macht einen guten Eindruck. Für alle die mit dem Team Sever arbeiten und gerne per Ballon Tip über bestimmte Events informiert werden wollen, stellt das Tool eine Alternative da.

Infos von der Webseite:

Welcome!! TfsAlert is a .Net 3.0 smart client which monitors for user selected TFS events and will display a balloon window in the Windows TaskBar Notification Area. It is built on top of WCF where you can subscribe to any TFS event you feel fit. It's initial focus is around Team Build management but will also include features around Work Item tracking.
