I'm wondering what's the right way to code a chat application for thousands of users.I'm just confused how will I be able to ping the server using AJAX every second or maybe less and check if there are new records in MySQL, etc with an acceptable amount of server(s) load.I'm currently thinking about coding this using jQuery, PHP and MySQL.Please advice. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
