title: Quickest way to write a little server
body: <p>I need a remote computer to communicate with my android/iPhone apps to do things like promote, get stats... What's the fastest way to achieve this? No html needed, it's just for short (most likely JSON) messages between me and myself. </p>
  
  <p>I have an account on my university's CS unix-based server on which I can host content. Tutorials greatly appreciated, thank you.</p>
