Rauchg: I'm sorry I didn't check back in with the changes I suggested (using a filtering function in listener.broadcast as a complement to an array with exceptions).
I have the implementation down but I'm struggling with the tests. I wanted to create tests for all means of calling with exceptions, and I think I have the other ones down.
I'll ping you when I get it fixed, promise!
Edit: Thanks again for your work, Socket.IO is really great!
Socket.IO has really impressed me in the past month. That said, some of the documentation is tricky (IMHO) with things like gotchas in the absolute/relative paths, special cases for working within Node.js, etc. If anyone else here is using this new Socket with Node, I'd be interested in comparing notes-- PM me.

1) One line to install
npm install socket.io
2) Three lines two use on the server
var io = require('socket.io');
var socket = io.listen(yourHttpServerInstance);
socket.on('connection', function(conn){ conn.on('message', function(msg){ console.log('message from client', msg); }); }
3) Three lines to use on the client
<script src="/socket.io/socket.js"></script> <!-- assuming node serves the HTML too -->
var socket = new io.Socket().connect();
socket.send('my message!');
