Of course, that article refers to some obsolete technologies (IE no
longer has "Channels"), so Anthony is probably correct.

Even with Channels it's the client which schedules a _pull_ of data. There
is no way for an ASP server to initiate and therefore push new information
to a client. Using HTTP there is no option but for the client to poll for
new info.

Yes, I was thinking the OP would read the article and realize it was not
talking about a true push server, just a technique to approximate one.
