One just has to wonder how such a service would work should said device be put into an area that doesn't have internet connectivity. This would render such a service quite useless or would it be better to word it as pointless?Yes it does use sockets, BUT if you download the synapse components from http://www.ararat.cz/synapse/ there is a demo in there under the demos/http/ dir called httpdemo which shows you how to do an http post. Basically if you go to a website and you press the submit button, it posts what you have entered into the boxes to another webpage. what these components do, is post the contents of a delphi prom to the same page. Basically it emulates you pressig the submit button...if you follow.
If you can guarantee internet connectivity then its the way to go otherwise the whole plan falls off the edge of the ship and into the water along with the plank walkers.
