Good beginners tutorial to socket.io? [closed]

Question

To start with Socket.IO I suggest you read first the example on the main page:

http://socket.io/

On the server side, read the "How to use" on the GitHub source page:

https://github.com/Automattic/socket.io

And on the client side:

https://github.com/Automattic/socket.io-client

Finally you need to read this great tutorial:

http://howtonode.org/websockets-socketio

Hint: At the end of this blog post, you will have some links pointing on source code that could be some help.

A 'fun' way to learn socket.io is to play BrowserQuest by mozilla and look at its source code :-)
