Real-time? As in viewing the same board like people would in real-life? I would say that's a job for Java or Flash. You could pull off something with Javascript and XMPP (bad choice? I don't know), in which case Python would be on the server directing the game logic and sending the proper messages to the players. So look into XMPP (xmpppy or Twisted Words are your choices, I guess) and learn up on Javascript. That's my take on it, at least. I'm sure someone with more experience could direct you more specifically. Turn-based would be much easier. -- Corey Richardson -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
