&gt; 

Hi, no
this is not direct socket access (e.g. you cannot access port 993 on some computer and start to communicate with IMAP protocol). The name is confusing. WebSockets is protocol on its own.
The link you posted is client side communication interface. The underlying communication protocol is here
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hybi-thewebsocketprotocol-17
(so far FF7 supports 7th version, Chrome supports 10th version, but will switch to 16th version)

If you want to know more I suggest 
http://www.youtube.com/user/BronislavKlucka#p/c/3A7E9CAAA6B4CB73/0/2MSPwt3WGq8
video about mine server and client implementation
and
http://code.google.com/p/bauglir-websocket/
the implementation itself with some demos</thetext>
