I want to built a shoutbox where only group members can talk. For example I've 5 groups each with 60 members, I have done a similar shoutbox with PHP/MySQL/jQuery but with the increase of members the activity was slow. I came across Pusher (http://www.pusher.com).
All I want to know is what should be my method of approach where I can segregate the members according to their groups and can use the shoutbox.
I'm confused with the event trigger of Pusher. Can anyone please explain me how should I do the approach, also that I need to save the shoutbox message in a mysql database for history.

It seems likely that you would want to use a channel for each group - use channels to route and filter data.
You would use events if there are different types of group events e.g. new_shout
, shout_updated
, shout_deleted
.
Pusher doesn't presently offer a message history so you would need to store this yourself.
