+<h1>Network Communications</h1>
+
+
+<p>
+Packaged apps can act as a network client
+for TCP and UDP connections.
+This doc shows you how to use TCP and UDP
+to send and receive data over the network.
+For more information,
+see the 
+<a href="experimental.socket.html">Sockets API</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p class="note">
+<b>API Samples: </b>
+Want to play with the code?
+Check out the
+<a href="https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chrome-app-samples/tree/master/telnet">telnet</a>
+and <a href="https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chrome-app-samples/tree/master/udp">udp</a> samples.

+
+<h2 id="manifest">Manifest requirements</h2>
+
+<p>
+For packaged apps that use TCP or UDP,
+add the "experimental" and "socket" permissions
+to the manifest:
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+"permissions": [
+   "experimental",
+   "socket"
+ ]
+</pre>
+
+<h2 id="tcp">Using TCP</h2>
+
+<p>
+Packaged apps can make connections to any service that supports TCP.
+</p>
+
+<h3>Connecting to a socket</h3>
+
+<p>
+Here's a sample showing how to connect to a socket:
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+chrome.socket.create('tcp', {}, function(createInfo) {
+  socket.connect(createInfo.socketId, IP, PORT, onConnectedCallback);
+});
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+Keep a handle to the socketId so that
+you can later read and write to this socket.
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+chrome.socket.write(socketId, arrayBuffer, onWriteCompleteCallback);
+</pre>
+
+<h3>Reading to and writing from a socket</h3>
+
+<p>
+Reading and writing from a socket uses ArrayBuffer objects.
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+chrome.socket.read(socketId, null, function(readInfo) {
+  if (readInfo.resultCode > 0) {
+    // readInfo.data is an arrayBuffer.
+  }
+});
+</pre>
+
+<h3>Disconnecting from a socket</h3>
+
+<p>Here's how to disconnect:</p>
+
+<pre>chrome.socket.disconnect(socketId);</pre>
+
+<h2 id="udp">Using UDP</h2>
+
+<p>
+Packaged apps can make connections to any service that supports UDP.
+</p>
+
+<h3>Sending data</h3>
+
+<p>
+Here's a sample showing how to send data
+over the network using UDP:
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+// Create the Socket
+chrome.experimental.socket.create('udp', '127.0.0.1', 1337, {},
+ function(socketInfo) {
+   // The socket is created, now we want to connect to the service
+   var socketId = socketInfo.socketId;
+   chrome.experimental.socket.connect(socketId, function(result) {
+     // We are now connected to the socket so send it some data
+     chrome.experimental.socket.write(socketId, arrayBuffer,
+       function(sendInfo) {
+         console.log("wrote " + sendInfo.bytesWritten);
+       }
+     );
+   });
+ }
+);
+</pre>
+
+<h3>Receiving data</h3>
+
+<p>
+This example is very similar to the 'Sending data' example
+with the addition of a special handler in the 'create' method.
+The parameter is an object with one value 'onEvent'
+that is a function reference to the method
+that will be called when data is available on the port.
+</p>
+
+<pre>
+// Handle the data response
+var handleDataEvent = function(d) {
+  var data = chrome.experimental.socket.read(d.socketId);
+  console.log(data);
+};
+
+// Create the Socket
+chrome.experimental.socket.create('udp', '127.0.0.1', 1337, { onEvent: handleDataEvent },
+ function(socketInfo) {
+   // The socket is created, now we want to connect to the service
+   var socketId = socketInfo.socketId;
+   chrome.experimental.socket.connect(socketId, function(result) {
+     // We are now connected to the socket so send it some data
+     chrome.experimental.socket.write(socketId, arrayBuffer,
+       function(sendInfo) {
+         console.log("wrote " + sendInfo.bytesWritten);
+       }
+     );
+   });
+ }
+);
+</pre>
