Takes forever to load and using a DB for queuing messages is a bit of a shite idea. Comet (ie: Reverse Ajax/HTTP Push) is a better idea.

Ed - I'd check the stats on your host/box as it's stupidly slow to load, so something isn't playing nicely.

I just kicked my server, none of the sites hosted on it were working but now they are.

If you have access to the box then Nginx (webserver) + HTTP Push module (will need to compile it). Been pissing around with it for a client, works well for 'push' chat/notification style apps. Plus Nginx is pretty decent at handling static content (and PHP if you use fastcgi).

I was just going to do frequent AJAX polls, probably more simple to code.

Never played with HTTP push but got complete access to the box.

This is the module, has an example on the right side of a basic chat - http://pushmodule.slact.net.
As said, it's a module for Nginx so either you run Nginx on another port or you replace Apache for it. Although i've yet to personally run Nginx on an external facing production server (Wordpress and a load of other use it for their webserver though). But Nginx does appear to work well and i've yet to notice any performance issues compared to Apache, even for PHP scripts.

Tomcat is another option, looked into it briefy but couldn't get it to run correctly.

Ian - Polling is probably the easiest option tbh. What were you going to do for the backend? Message queue in a DB?

Would probably run the other web server and bind it to a different port, switching from Apache would be a rather larger job.

Hadn't really thought any further than that, just timestamped messages and sync the requests, possibly get a user id in there and write something so you don't see duplicates if that isn't too expensive.
