Does it also use "notify-osd"? If so, try this:

I tried out your link and installed NotifyOSD Configuration but notifies coming from the gwibber are still timing out under a second. Any other suggestions?

To adjust gwibber notification u need to patch it first. There was a patch in Ubuntu 10.10(Gwibber 2.91.3).
See here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/gwibber/+bug/726666 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/gwibber/+bug/726666)

1.First patch it, then build & install it from source.

2.Then open gconf-editor (press alt+F2 & type : gconf-editor).
Navigate to

/apps/gwibber/preferences/notification_display_time,
set the value 10,000 (for 10 sec) or whatever you like.

3.Restart & you are done.

Remember this patch is for gwibber 2.91.3, it may not work for gwibber 3.0 or higher.
