Just curious: Have you heard of firef.ly from back in the day? :-)

Never heard of it. But it actually does use the same technique (I use flash as fallback for browsers that doesn't support websockets... well actually, Socket.IO does it all <- love it).

pretty sure firefly is ChartBeat now.

I blame Tony Haile ;-)
