GILD
The Generic Internet Listener Daemon
This is ancient history, and never was meant for doing anything practical; it's essentially a joke. Its practical use - when it had any practical use - was to experiment with new protocols.
The fact that protocols can be implemented in more or less any language you like is an added jape: see HTTP in under 100 lines of shell script.
Enjoy!
