SPDY: An experimental protocol for a faster web Executive summary

As part of the “Let’s make the web faster” initiative, we are experimenting with alternative protocols to help reduce the latency of web pages. One of these experiments is SPDY (pronounced “SPeeDY”), an application-layer protocol for transporting content over the web, designed specifically for minimal latency. In addition to a specification of the protocol, we have developed a SPDY-enabled Google Chrome browser and open-source web server. In lab tests, we have compared the performance of these applications over HTTP and SPDY, and have observed up to 64% reductions in page load times in SPDY. We hope to engage the open source community to contribute ideas, feedback, code, and test results, to make SPDY the next-generation application protocol for a faster web.

Speed is only one aspect, security is another and that new protocol when eventually used would obviously not be monitored by the web shield unless that was redeveloped to include the protocol.

yeah… once it becomes more serious, more sites using it, it will be time for Avast to consider updating their web shield; guess they wouldn’t have any other choice.

The improvement of internet is nice

I wish I lived a 1000 year.

How would the internet look after a 100 year?

Information overload?

It would be dfficult to choose a right name for your website because by another 100 year every word in the dictionary would be patented.
