Facebook acquired FriendFeed and we all knew all that came with it. The brains and the technology plus the possibility on leveraging a very useful service online. Today Facebook announced something I wasn’t expecting it to for quite some time to come; Open sourcing a part of it. The Social Network released Tornado, a real time framework for Python. The framework will be able to handle traffic simultaneously with its support for the many tough tasks associated to Web  Development. These include localization, user authentication like Facebook Connect, etc. This would improve the quality of service at a high performance rate. I will be running through the details and you can download and read it here.
