A super technical dive into the reasons behind the node_pcap library, which is a node.js binding for libpcap. If you want your mind blown, just think - JavaScript network packet analyzer.

All you need to know about the building block of node.js programs going forward, streams. Streams will allow the construction of very performant pathways or pipes that can pass chunked data in rapid succession. This is keenly unique to node.js and the way it works and will allow new concepts such as back pressure. Streams are definitely going to be an exciting new addition to the node.js I/O model. This episode is with Mikeal Rogers who, among many things, is the curator of NodeConf.Streams"Every application is really a proxy" - Ryan DahlPipes/pumpsBack PressureThe world becomes happy with mobile and slow clientsReadyStatePaul QuernaHTTP Interface on Streams Branch
