[osflash] Techniques to implement a Chat system

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

On my last project I need to implement a chat system. However, I'm really
not sure about the technologies involved. I know I can do the "refresh
trick" (pull method?) where the application keeps pinging the server to see
if there is new data available. I also know that there are other more
efficient solutions such as the one used by FMS or FDS, and here's my doubt
- what is this technology about (JMS?) ? Does it work over http? How does
that work after all?

Thanks in advance,

Marcelo.
