The thing that comes to mind is an interactive blackboard (where two or more
people can draw on the same diagram) - a project I worked on at Harvard a
couple years back had a decent amount of federal funding to explore the
possibility of building such a thing for scientific collaboration. It would
be very SVG and you've got SVG-edit and other open source drawing projects
to leverage.

 

Just an idea

Subject: [svg-developers] Need suggestions for websocket demonstration

 

  



My websocket server has been running a demonstration for a couple of weeks
now. What I have is stable. But here's the thing. It's just an echo server
like the other guy had. That's a terrible demonstration for websockets, in
fact. You might as well do that with Ajax. I added a few lines so that when
the connection is made, the server responds several times making the point
that it can. Still, I'd like to build a more interesting demonstration of
something better suited to websockets. A chat demo comes to mind. There was
at least one person trying hard to get my demo to become a chat demo. He
kept replacing '/echo' in the websocket url with '/chat' - yes, I can see
what people do - this is as much a developmental test as a demo. I think
he's interesting in building one of his own and would be a potential early
adopter.

But maybe there's something better. Either something that would capture the
imagination - i.e. really show what websockets are about and how they can
transform the Internet experience - or something extremely well suited to
HTML5 that's now easier because of websockets - or something websockets can
do that you believe would be in high demand, or ....

Anyway - comments and suggestions would be appreciated.

Roger
