The Python standard libraries urllib and urllib2 have little to do with each other. They were designed to be independent and standalone, each solving a different scope of problems, and urllib3 follows in a similar vein.

On the other hand this library is perfect for talking to APIs, crawling a website, any situation where being able to post files, handle redirection, and retrying is useful, etc.

Here are some key features of "urllib3":

· HTTPConnectionPool - Thread-safe connection pooling and re-using
· filepost - File posting! Supported implicitly by HTTPConnectionPool.post_url
· Automatically handles redirection and retries!.

Requirements:

· Python 2.6 or higher

· Minor AppEngine-related fixes.
· Switched from mimetools.choose_boundary to uuid.uuid4().
