Hi Ziv, As Jerome said, there's no support for such a mechanism in the Gadget API, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible. Gadgets are mini web pages at their core, so any server push technology that works on a web page will work on a gadget. In addition to Java and Flash, long polling is a viable option as well.
