SignalR

Async signaling library for .NET to help build real-time, multi-user interactive web applications.

https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR

You can see a live example of it in play here http://jabbr.net/

You will need IIS 8.0 to get web sockets, it uses long-polling on IIS 7.

I think they may be working on using https://github.com/davidfowl/Fleck and https://github.com/davidfowl/SignalR.Fleck to show how you can use Fleck web socket server with SignalR
