A talk covering web sockets as a general asynchronous event brokering system.

A common use case for this is chat applications as seen in the Teammate app, but it can be used for so much more.

Imagine a case where a resource has been updated on a web server and you want to broadcast this change to your clients so they can refresh on demand without having the clients manually trigger a refresh. This and more are covered in the video above.
