It doesn't work for me, you seem to forgot the socket creation

I made an alternative implementation based on the python documentation

Sorry but I can't see the option to add a new file, so I paste it here

Hmmm it seems that pasting here code it's a bad idea, here it should be readable http://pastebin.com/f5ec9911
