Comet at the iPhone BarCamp
by Michael CarterJune 27th, 2008
I will be giving a talk this Saturday titled “Impact of the Reverse AJAX (Comet), TCP Connection and HTML5 to the architecture of the Web” at the iPhone BarCamp this Saturday in Palo Alto, CA.
There are under ten slots still available for this event (registration cap is 100) so if you’re interested, you can still register. This talk will cover a range of Comet-related topics, including what Comet is and how it works, how it will impact the architecture of your application, and the formalization of Comet with regards to the HTML5 specification. Additional information can be found at the BarCamp Wiki. I hope to see you there, but if not, I’ll post my slides and speaking notes for later review.

Michael,
I think this is a great idea.
However, you always need to go through port 80 for consumer apps, as many firewalls block any ports other than 80, right? Also, how will proxy servers handle your requests/data when you are not using HTTP?
