Is the blocknotify (that is set in the conf file) fired on every new block found in the chain or is it something else?

Cheers.

It's every new block.  If you use the %s value in your shell script (or command line batch file, etc.) it will get replaced with the block's hash value.  Which you can then look up using your favorite service or using json-rpc.

It takes the your command puts it into a shell by using sh -c command for every new block, it gets relayed.

Thanks! The only reason I asked is because the Bitcoin wiki states something about the best block.

Cheers.
