Method 1
James, Comet is the name of the technique and not a specific code.

Method 2
PokeIn gives you an enhanced JSON functionality to make your server side objects available in client side. Simply, it is a Reverse Ajax library which makes it easy to call JavaScript functions from C#/VB.NET and to call C#/VB.NET functions from JavaScript. It has numerous features like event ordering, resource management, exception handling, marshaling, Ajax upload control, mono compatibility, WCF & .NET Remoting integration and scalable server push.
There is a free community license option for this library and the licensing option is quite cost effective in comparison to others.
Method 3
There is a free edition of Lightstreamer – you’d have to look at the feature list though.
