Read Ilya Grigoriks post about WebSocket and Ruby Eventmachine and wanted to do something with WebSocket Since I also wanted to do something with evented I/O with node.js, why not make it super buzzwordy and combine both!

Prequisites:

0. node.js
1. Git
2. Google Chrome (for now - it's the only browser that supports it)

Download the code

git clone git://github.com/bdotdub/nodejs-chat

Run it!

node server/startServer.js

Open up client/chat.html and you're good to go!
