Google Could Double Web Speeds With SPDY Protocol

So Google is developing a new protocol, dubbed SPDY pronounced speedy. SPDY is designed, from the ground up, to handle modern Web apps that transfer several smaller files. Without getting too technical, SPDY is able to handle multiple streams of data at once and prioritize on the fly. This means that if the background image of a site takes a long time to load, it doesnt stall the rest of the content from being fed to the browser. SPDY also compresses request and response data which asks for specific content and tells a browser what to display so that multiple requests can be sent at once using less bandwidth
