You might also want to look at CCTweaks (http://www.computerc...0189-cc-tweaks/) which provides a socket API.

This is an option, or if you dont want to use another mod, you could take a look at HTTP to Socket, an API me and my friend developed. It allows both TCP and UDP socketting without the need for another mod. Although, it does require a webserver running it, but that could be done on your own computer, a raspberry pi, realistically anything that can run a webserver with a jsp applet container

I'd use the HTTP api for using my APIs on websites rather than sockets.

I found out how websockets are different from normal sockets, by the way - they're designed for use by untrusted client code.

With raw sockets you could, say, connect to and SMTP server and send spam emails. With websockets, the server gets told that "this is a connection from ComputerCraft computer #13552", and it should reject the connection unless it's specifically intended to deal with requests from ComputerCraft computers.
