I am trying to create a notification system very much like the SO one ( the one when receiving a new message ). My site is built in PHP and i would like the notifications to occur when data is inserted to the DB from the PHP.
At the top of my head i would just curl the node server passing it some post parameters, is that right way to do?
Are there any good practice (security, performances..)?

DNode is a good option.

Look at the redis channels. We use this practice for same prupose. Benefits : you can have a lot of node.js servers and they will receive notifications almost a the same time...
