if your going make a website u obviously would need to require("http") or 
https if thats wat u plan to implement. My point is, that u need to learn 
the HTTP 1.1 API to understand how to build http web servers and how ur 
going to fully take advantage of the http features provided in node. It 
should take u less than an hour really to understand HTTP 1.1 API.
