This lightning talk will explain the inner workings of a COMET server implemented using Squatting+Continuity. First, a super-brief introduction to Coro and AnyEvent will be provided. Then, a brief explanation of how Continuity allocates one (or more) coroutines to each browser session will be given. Finally, a COMET server that puts all these ideas into action will be shown to the audience.
