" summary

Promises concrete comparisons and live demos: claims that DNS, SMTP, XMPP, SSH, STOMP, SPDY are useful alternatives to HTTP, uses tcpdump to inspect packets, uses Ruby gems mail, net-dns, stomp to send SMTP messages, query DNS and publish/subscribe with Apache Apollo, and runs a small Erlang DNS server. Code prints DNS headers, SMTP.rb shows SMTP exchange captured by mailcatcher, and STOMP publisher/subscriber actually exchanges messages — all demonstrations run and produce inspectable outputs.
