Blending this with browserify + backbone + redis will be really easy to do. I think it will definitely simplify the dev of our app ; allowing us to share even more code between the client and server so that we can maximize code reuse.


On that note, (browserify author here) I would love to see projects like nowjs start to abuse the "browserify" field in the package.json for client distribution like dnode v0.6 does (presently in staging until socket.io-node v0.7 lands). With this field you can `require('pkgname')` in your browser-side code just by specifying 'pkgname' in your require list, even though pkgname might have both server and browser-side components.


Sounds like it would be amazingly convenient. We'll definitely look into that for next release.
