Collaboration data: | |||
Bemasc has suggested to store the messages using files and directories | |||
* /users could be a list of current users | |||
* /$USERNAME/ could be a list of messages, displayed as files | |||
* To check for new messages, just poll the contents of /$USERNAME/. | |||
* To check for new users, just poll /users. | |||
* If you want to see what messages $USERNAME has emitted, poll /$USERNAME/ | |||
Also one other way is using http PUT & GET | |||
Flaws: it's all broadcast, and it's all polling. | |||
Broadcast is inefficient in the network if you really only want to send a message to a single user. Polling wastes CPU, battery, and possibly network. | |||
On way to handle polling is setting a high timeout for XHR. (Thanks Lucian) | |||
