I have a one admin to many clients scenario.
The admin asks questions and the clients are expected to respond with a Yes/No. The communication happens real-time and time to live for one question is say about 2 minutes. So, after 2 minutes, the admin refreshes the question and new question is put up.
I am working with ASP.NET. Before getting started on code, I was wondering if there are any components available that can be used to work with something like this?
I would also be glad if I could get some leads in to developing it otherwise.
Thank You
I think you need one scheduler which can put up the question at every 2 min for that you can use Timer class will help you to achieve this easily.
check the example of timer and get detail info at below link of msdn

Does not look like a usual scenario. Building a custom solution won't be that hard. You can have client side js timer or meta refresh tag to keep page refreshed.
