Websockets versus ajax polling?

I recall I did a small project a couple of years ago with
websockets/faye
plugin. It was a little complex, but I was wondering if many people use
websockets in stead of what seems like the more typical ajax polling and
is
it very easy to implement in sinatra ?

here is a good websockets implementation

it might make your next project easier
