Does anyone see Google's SPDY used in production? Is there a way to detect if a website is communicating with my browser (provided it is a fresh Chrome) using SPDY?

+1  A: 

I don't know if it is used in production, even by google.

But of course you can detect it, just sniff the TCP/IP packagees from and to the webserver, and check where they are SPDY packages or just HTTP.

AFAIK it's not used anywhere (yet?). Shame, I'd like to see it/use it.

I doubt that it's used, as the current Chrome/Chromium only supports SPDY detection using the SSL NPN extension, which was only recently added to the edge openssl. And the Alternate-Protocol which is not npn is not supported. http://www.chromium.org/spdy/spdy-protocol/spdy-protocol-draft2#TOC-Server-Advertisement-of-SPDY-throug
