It does, if you install IO::All::LWP:

# examples from the SYNOPSIS
use IO::All;

"hello world\n" > io('ftp://localhost/test/x');   # save to FTP
$content < io('http://example.org');              # GET webpage

io('http://example.org') > io('index.html');      # save webpage

And you can also tie it, treat is as a file, and use other IO::All tricks:

my $io = io('http://example.org')->tie;
while (<$io>) {
  # do something
}
