Worth noting is that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_socket suggests that the term "Socket" doesn't refer to tcp/ip, rather it refers to multiple protocols.

In this context, neither WebSocket nor SocketConnection really present a naming problem. -Michael Carter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
