It is the new ubuntu/kubuntu message indicator thingie with the horrible name 
:) 

One of the devs just posted a wiki page on it here:
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KarmicKoala/ConfigureIndicators

I am trying it out, so far it seems a little more passive than the normal KDE 
info popup. Kmail, for example doesn't pop up with my long list of folders 
with new messages, or irc pokes. It just tells me something happened, and I 
can go back and check on things whenever I can get back to them.

It's different, not sure I will use it much myself, though it may be good for 
those who use a mix of KDE and Gnome apps
