It notifies you of new followers, mentions, likes, comments, ratings and shares.

It's right there on the main menu of the Follow Me skin.

At the moment yes - we'll likely add it into other skins where it makes sense. With Follow Me focusing 100% on 'social' it makes sense it will use it a lot.

Basically what Profile Pulse is is a new "what's new" notification system - i.e. modules can say "when this event happens, create a pulse counter". The Profile module provides the framework for allowing create and update pulse counts.

It's up to the skin to "get" the counts where needed, as well as reset them when needed. Initially we were going to try to automate that part as much as we could, but realized that each skin is likely to do it differently.

Let me know if that helps.
