You'll learn more about the HTTP protocol than someone who worshiped TCP streams.

This was a good course! I feel like I learned a lot about something that was fairly obscure in my mind for a long time. I always knew / vaguely understood what all of this was, but getting to actually write client code that did something with http requests / responses definitely helped it make more sense
