I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about sending notifications to Cocoa applications using either Ruby, or PHP? I want to send notifications using a cocoa application to another cocoa application and / or send notifications from a web based application.

AppleEvents are the standard way to do this. Cocoa's scriptability APIs make it pretty easy to implement AppleEvent/AppleScript support. From Ruby you can use the bridge to invoke AppleScript, and from any language you can launch an AppleScript as a separate task or use the 'osascript' tool to send raw AppleEvents.
