I'm not sure what you mean either, but perhaps you're talking about an
HTTP long polling/comet thing? You might want to check out orbited
(http://orbited.org/) which is a server-side comet implementation
using Twisted.
I've been interested in a plugin for nginx called nginx_http_push
(http://pushmodule.slact.net/) that could allow for a more efficient
implementation of long-polling/push over HTTP. All you need to do is
POST to a resource server-side (say, using Twisted) and nginx and the
plugin take care of pushing out the message to clients.
Cheers,
Reza
