Its dependancies are a little stiff, although I was planning in the future to turn the whole thing into an 
applet, or stick it into the notification area, or something.  Which as I understand it, means pulling in 
Gnome anyhow.

Raw TCP -- simple, would work, pain in the butt, and limited.
Wget -- Done.  Pretty error messages, but limited control.
GnetHttp -- Isn't readily available yet.
libCurl -- lots of features, but needs threading?
Gnome VFS -- may as well make it a Gnome app.
