#5  CrazyFool. I am a software, TCP/IP guy. I knew about RFC1149. That is why I thought about web surfing over Carrier Pigeons: you write an URL on a paper, attach it on a pigeon and then you send the pigeon to the Secret Police Post Office where a friendly Policeman Postman enters the URL on computer and either prints the answer and sends it to you or orders your arrest.

In that case at least they are being standards compliant.

There is an Official Carrier Pigeon Internet Protocol - RFC1149 - A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers
