What about Socket.io? Heroku points to this announcement and it looks like the sort of thing that could function similar to Websockets.

- grandalf 15y agoSocket.io will work with long polling or flash sockets, so it may end up being the approach people take. However Websockets is a significantly more efficient, standards-oriented approach. There is a large class of apps that would be really awesome (webkit browsers, websockets + node) that will not be hostable with Heroku. In my personal opinion, these would be really awesome apps.
