Hi Arjan,

Thanks got getting back to me. I think the *observe_rsc_update_done/2 *function
is what I need to implement. I want to show a realtime twitter feed on my
site but I'm unsure of how to achieve this. Am I right in thinking I should
a new module that implements the *observe_rsc_update_done/2 *function and
enable it in the module admin. Each user on the site would then be
observing resource updates. To push an update out to the browser, do I call
something like *z_session_page:add_script/2* in the *
observe_rsc_update_done/2 *function?

Thanks
