what is the best suited programming language and technologies to make an online chatting service that scales up to support 50.000 users at the same time such us the band width usage stays at minimum (web server friendly). I have considered using php or python, are they good choices ?
Any of the web-friendly languages (Perl, PHP, Python, Java/JSP) are OK on a back-end.
Your skills as a developer matter a lot more than choice of a language.
If you’re Good Enough, use Lisp 🙂 [ Frequent readers of JoelOnSoftware should catch the reference : ]
