I feel the example I built for our demo is a good one. Here I implemented presence and chat servers to build online chatroom. Servers and clients were initially built in Ruby, to be used in a private network behind firewall. I was then able to re-use client code with minimal changes and port it into JavaScript. This client code gave presence and chat to the browser. So effectively we solved an interesting networking problem once and were able to re-use the solution in two vastly different environments - private networks and the browser, where different authentication, authorization, performance and guarantees requirements apply.
