Please post the full code and configuration you are using. Your results don't match what I have seen nor the expected results. Some notes: - Socket.IO supports several different transports, including AJAX. To have persistent connections you

JTxt. We had a similar problem (but for a different reasons) with the original (1110.n01se.net) when the initial rush from HN happened. After a few minutes we moved the server to an AWS t1.micro instance (our previous hosting company didn't

Actually, I've done some analysis of the stream of messages and it appears the current problem is that the vast majority of messages never arrive (even as of 7:30am CST). You can verify this easily by connecting with two browser windows. Th

WebRTC has a data channel proposal which would allow you to do P2P data communication: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jesup-rtcweb-data-protocol-...

They mean that you don't have to run a server yourself, instead you use their PubNub messaging service (which has a free tier but costs after that).

For our original server, after the first full day after the HN post, we racked up an AWS bill of about $1.62. Most of that was in the first few minutes after the announcement before we implemented the user cap. From earlier today for about

Yeah, we actually made the decision to cap the number of users so that the connected users would get a good experience with low latency and high interactivity. We figured that people who really wanted to see it would come back (or look at t

I think your service is having some trouble. The updates appear fairly smooth because the client continues rendering the last vector seen for each avatar. However, when comparing with several friends also connected it's clear that very few

There are servers, you just don't have to run your own. PubNub is a commercial company with a messaging platform that they have integrated this with.

The media-capture API approach has stagnated. I think most of the energy and focus has shifted to WebRTC ( http://webrtc.org ).

You've certainly identified some of the issues with the video tag for replacing Flash for video. But the thing that may keep Flash kicking for years to come may actually be advertising. It's a pretty small matter for Google to reencode thei

Even the W3C is not pedantic about "HTML5". A lot of what is advertised on their logo page at http://www.w3.org/html/logo/ (File APIs, IndexedDB, WebSockets, SVG, WebGL, CSS 3D, etc, etc) are not technically part of the HTML5 standard sp

I am aware of the history of WHATWG and you are right that its beginning was largely a reaction to the intransigence of W3C at the time. However, the current relationship is a healthy and collaborative one (I would certainly wouldn't descri

You're right. Although I don't think Microdata is quite important enough to be in the main ten, I should have mentioned it in "All The Others". If you post your comment to the blog I'll acknowledge that there.

Nativeclient is very cool, and it allows you to run native code in your browser, but that does not mean native applications. You still have to port applications and any libraries to the nativeclient API/SDK ( http://code.google.com/p/nativ

I've added some screenshots of my own in the past week: http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/screenshots.html I'm also working on the ability to play back recorded VNC sessions directly in noVNC. No ETA on that though. Watch noVNC github commit

RDP (along with Red Hat's Spice and NX) is on my long term TODO list. On the other hand, if somebody sent me good patches (or a pull request) that added RDP support to noVNC, reviewing and integrating them would be on my short term TODO lis
