It would appear that setting the Credentials property of a HttpWebRequest still leads to authentication failure against the Superfeedr HTTP PubSubHubbub API. This might be because the way the HttpWebRequest works is that it first waits to be...

With real-time push becoming mainstream more and more developers are going to start adding real-time push to their website. One minor user experience hurdle still to be fully solved for webkit based browsers is the "always loading indicator" which can appear if a streaming connection has been established to a push server or service. This indicator appears due to the streaming connection that has been established between JavaScript in the web browser, using an XMLHttpRequest object , where you are effectively continually loading, or waiting, for content from the push server.

What? I'm doing a real-time web workshop on May 16 for the SPA 2010 Conference and I'd like to do a trial run with a group of around eight people to get feedback and refine it some more. Details about the workshop can be found here: http://www.spaconference.org/spa2010/sessions/session303.html In the workshop we'll discuss the real-time web and the enabling technologies, highlight the comet/server push technologies that are presently available, and use the Kwwika service to show how to: Add real-time data to any web page Create a better real-time search results page Add real-time publishing from a web page Create a real-time collaboration and communication example If there is sufficient interest I'll try and sort out a venue next week. The workshop will probably take around 3.5 hours so I'll need to sort out times once I get an idea of interest. I'll try to keep the presentation side of things to a minimum and concerntrate on discussion and development exercises. For this we'll need internet access and a computer for development. It may also be a good idea to pair during the exercises. Where? Edinburgh or Dundee during the week beginning Monday 10 May 2010. Anyway, please give me a shout if you are interested. Or if you would be interested but don't have that much time to spare maybe we can do a shortened version. phil@kwwika.com https://www.leggetter.co.uk/contact-me /
