Hi! I''m trying to develop a web chat (like the facebook one, but much simpler) that works inside Rails 3, and so I''m inquiring about the methods used for this scope. I had some success applying this guide http://www.web2media.net/laktek/2010/02/16/building-real-time-web-apps-with-rails3/ , so now I am able to send messages form the server to the client. Anyway, I read about some sort of XML-based protocol called XMPP, which seems to be widley used in this cases. I really don''t know anything about either cramp or XMPP, and so I would ask: * Do you have some info about cramp (guides, explanations, examples...)? apart from the above post, I found this http://m.onkey.org/2010/1/7/introducing-cramp , and nothing else (maybe because it is relatively young?) Above all.. * ... how does cramp work? Is a parallel server? A thread? What is it??? :) * Is XMPP the way? Do you know how to implement it? * Do you know anything about the argument?
