Probably not still keeping this thread alive, but on the off chance I can't waste the opportunity. I've recently become a meteor/react convert and I'm using it for all of my current projects. I've got one issue that I have yet to solve in a reliable seeming way: how to signal the client without going through the database and a subscription. For example, in a game I want to send a message to the client to display "Player 1 almost scores!". I don't care about this information in the long run, so I don't want to push it to the DB. I guess I could just set up another socket.io, but I'd rather not have to manage a second connection if there is a good way to go it within meteor. Thanks!

You probably want this package to handle that for you: atmospherejs.com/activitree/push
