Answer 1

Although you're not really specifying the technology you would like to work in ... But these links proved to be very helpful for me:

• Ajax Push(like) Chat with Comet
• Creating Comet applications with ASP.Net
• COMET (or Reverse AJAX) based Grid Control for ASP.NET

Answer 2

Comet is a big term, and there are many different implementations. There isn't a particular single specifications, it is more of a concept or idea.

I had to do a project with server push, and I came across a couple of attempts to come up with specifications, such as BOSH.

Eventually, I found the best I could do was check out what others are currently doing, there are a couple of nice projects such as Orbited and Juggernaut. Then, implement my own solution.

I built my own solution using Twisted and SocketBridge.
