As far as I understand V8 has it's own implementation of WS,
can someone explain whether it can be use in a Node app
and how? I do understand that it would probably be only
compatible with Chrome, nevertheless, it would be good to
find out a bit more on this...

V8 doesn't actually have an implementation of WebSockets, this is actually
in WebKit / Chromium.
The most up-to-date module that is just websockets is:
https://github.com/Worlize/WebSocket-Node
However, this only supports one of the drafts, when in reality you need to
support about 5 drafts. There are many efforts in order to do this, Socket.io
does partially implement all the drafts.
Another (combined) effort is node-websocket-protocol (and then by extension
all other websocket servers and clients). However, that project is still very
much just a pipe dream.

Thanks for so many answers guys, I just wasn't quite sure and thoguth
that v8 may as well contain the interface between the os and the browser
and some libs, well I see that you are saying it doesn't do any of that!
As I said, I am aware of how many specs are floating around.
