Realtime
From StatusNet
These are some options for real-time updates of the browser view of a list.
| Server | Supported? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Meteor | Yes | Inappropriate for private sites since any client can read any notice |
| Cometd | Yes | Don't use anywhere but on a private network; anyone can push notices to a Cometd server |
| APE | No...? | If this supports Bayeux, may work with Cometd plugin |
| XMPP | No | Possible to create a plugin that uses BOSH, anonymous accounts on the Web server, PubSub and http://code.stanziq.com/strophe/ to make XMPP work as a technology for real-time updates |
| Frozen Mountain | No | Commercial service for realtime; would be useful for sites who can't set up their own realtime server. Seems to support a modified version of Bayeux, so Cometd plugin could be adapted or reused. |
| Tornado | No | Realtime server created by Friendfeed. Seems to be more of a high-parallelization server like Twisted than others in this list. May be useful, though. |
| Orbited | No | Probably would need to use the STOMP subsystem, which seems kind of hard |
