balancing

I'm running two load balanced servers for one website, and I'd like the databases to be synchronized. Queries may be run on either of the two servers because they are both production sites, so the replication can't just work one way.

It doesn't have to be in real-time, just fairly accurate so people don't notice a difference when they get switched to a different server.
