What Hacker News says
3 sourcesCorrect me if I am wrong, but isn't this just websockets, not the whole of Socket.IO (i.e. fallbacks for non-supporting browsers)?
There is also: http://github.com/SocketTornadIO/SocketTornad.IO which is a port of Socket.IO that runs on Tornado.
In Socket.IO 0.6 releasedBeyond websockets, I've found that SocketTornado.IO works great out of the box and supports multiple transports with ease.
