Neat, I wasn't aware of that!

So, you could write a true chat server using flash and CFML under
Blackstone that doesn't require constant repeating connections every
second or every few seconds.. with the socket open, Flash could send
data only when necessary, and receive data from CF only when there is
new data to be received.

Using current technology, you could only do this with flash making a
request every second or every few seconds to the web server, and that
would probably suck up a lot of bandwidth (I've seen flash chat rooms
that do this with ASP...
