Has anyone considered a homebrew protocol? I have a book about implementing custom network protocols, as well as hardware and the other major components of a computer network. I've been interested in networking for a while, and started designing hardware and software for networking TRS-80s over RS-232 serial lines with a central server. Never got very far with that. Other projects beckoned. But in reality, many hobbyists have designed their own network protocols out of necessity. They wanted to network certain computers, but no network protocols had been implemented for them, so they wrote their own protocol, or ported someone else's.
