Feb 5, 2013 at 9:24 comment added Jonas @4esn0k, WS is not better, they are different and better for some specific tasks. 3) It's a new feature that people should be aware of and open up new possibilities for the Web
Feb 5, 2013 at 9:18 comment added 4esn0k @JoachimPileborg, it is webRTC for browser-to-browser, not websockets
Feb 5, 2013 at 9:13 comment added 4esn0k @JoachimPileborg, you can do it with TCP sockets or http too for desktop applications; and you have to use WebRTC to make browser-to-browser communication for website

Feb 5, 2013 at 9:10 comment added 4esn0k @Jonas, 1) why websockets protocol is better? 2) Why it was implemented instead of updating http protocol? 3) Why websockets are so promoted?
Feb 5, 2013 at 9:07 comment added Jonas What is your question?
