Title: Real-Time Web Collaboration Tool View count: 542 Rating: 5.0 (1 ratings) Description: My master's thesis project was a web collaboration tool that I felt people needed to explore ideas, resolve issues, track progress, and be more productive. Availability, scalability and highly asynchronous communication were a priority, enabling efficiency and full interactivity. This is simply a prototype, but I believe it to be a better implementation due to the usage of web standards, best practices, and long-lived http connections instead of polling. This amounts to the addition of functionality to a web app of this type, which is commonly accomplished through proprietary technologies, thus making the web a conversation and not a stale context. -- Technologies -- PostgreSQL Lighttpd with mod_fdajax RubyOnRails Prototype, Scriptaculous and DojoToolkit Openfire jabberd Tigris Subversion server -- Thanks to -- Mário Zenha Rela Grzegorz Daniluk Alex Russel -- Soundtrack -- Boss on the Boat - Suzuki - Tosca John Tomes - Suzuki - Tosca (Page loads are a bit slow due to my 6 year old powerbook at the time, having all the servers running in localhost and the rails app generating too much debug info.Sorry about that :1) Scroll down at http://vimeo.com/1572082 to download the high quality version.
