[HTML5 Server-Sent Events](http://www.w3.org/TR/eventsource/) for Go

## Why you should use Server-Sent-Events

- No need to implement custom protocol (WebSockets), it just uses HTTP

- Convenient JavaScript API, fires easy to handle Events

- Auto-Reconnects

- Unlike WebSockets, only unidirectional (server -> client)

## ToDo

- ID handling

- Improve Client Channel buffering
