Pushing Data to Application

I am new to developing android application. I need some guide as to how can I push a update to my application from my server. I want it to work something like Twitter where I can push a update of text and pictures to my application with a standard display format. Need some guide to how can I get this started.

I have seen through tutorials on push notification but that is not what I wanted. I want to be able to display the text on the received notification into my application.

Thanks

You can use websocket for pushing data from server to application.

Your application should open websocket connection with server. Then bi-di communication can be done between application and server.

Sample java websocket client can be found below link. https://github.com/TooTallNate/Java-WebSocket
