Using Persistent Sockets in Tropo.com Applications

In this screencast video, Voxeo's Jason Goecke demonstrates how a persistent socket can be established in Ruby between an application hosted on Tropo.com and a server process running on a local machine.  This enables real-time, low-latency communication between your application running in the Tropo cloud and an application running on your local premise.  In this configuration, Tropo provides the voice, IM and SMS interface for your local application.  For more information about this, please see http://blogs.voxeo.com/tropo.
