I often type "http:\\whatever/comes/next.com", current browsers (including firefox) etc don't seem to mind, but it does bother people if I type them like that in a message, email etc .

It makes me wonder if there was a time when URIs did use '\\' after the protocol name.

Why is the '//' there anyway, is the ':' not enough of a delimiter?
