Html5 Websockets - What should I know about sockets before using websockets

I'm currently experimenting with html5 and websockets. I know next to nothing about "ordinary" sockets. Before messing about with websockets I think it might be wise to learn about sockets. Is there any online material that I should read or excersizes that I should go through to get myself up to speed? It might be worth pointing out that I'm a c# programmer mainly.

Thanks in advance!

A: 

Well, surely you must read this at first. Browsers that support web-socket
