Personally, I think you'd have an easier time writing the server. If
you want more than one person to be able to read/write to the same
file, you'll have to figure out how to lock/unlock the file to keep
only one person writing at a time. Actually, reading shouldn't be a
problem. You just want to make sure only one person writes at a time.
You might also want to consider using a database server like MySQL or
PostgreSQL, though you'll still have the live update problem to work
out.
