Can you provide a real world example of an interaction, and how it would be improved with pushpin in front of it?

- jkarneges 12y agoSure. For example, we made a tool called WebhookInbox that collects HTTP requests. It has a realtime API that lets you know when requests have arrived: http://webhookinbox.com/docs/api.html#live-updates http://webhookinbox.com/docs/api.html#live-updates The above API has the quality you'd expect from a long-polling or streaming API produced by companies like Dropbox or Twitter, except that the backend is just a basic Django app. There's no crazy stateful event-driven code in WebhookInbox. So basically it makes realtime API development like this much easier.
