I've been reading about Amazon's SNS product - http://aws.amazon.com/sns/ and checking the API, docs, etc. But, I can't figure out one thing.

Can this service be used in a browser? I'd like to use the API to setup a real-time chat feature and can't figure out if this is possible. I can see how to make calls to create topics, and add subscribers, but can I embed this in a browser to users can receive (get pushed) messages?

I assume some type of long-poll or Flash client would be necessary for this, but I don't see it in the docs.

Thanks.
