a speed chess implementation using nodejs, express, websockets, etc. snazzy.

SWDC 2010 NodeJS Talk by Tim Caswell featuring Connect (by Patrick Liess)

points to consider:

1. wow. real time collaboration via a web page. exciting.
2. these node kids think a lot differently than i do.
3. where does real time fit in in our current web life?
4. pubsub stuff is seriously cool. but beyond chat, games, etc, where does it fit. how could i use it today to improve my clients lives?
5. these guys and their cleverness activates that old programming excitement for me.
