HTTP::Tiny is included in core, but SSL support is not "on" by default because it requires Net::SSLeay and IO::Socket::SSL. I personally find HTTP::Tiny easier to use, but loads of modules require LWP. LWP also supports other protocols, such as gopher (which like perl and BSD is dead/dying xD). So LWP is still very much relevant. If I were writing a client for a REST API (e.g.,) I would be using HTTP::Tiny. I have not looked at some other other suggestions, but they may suite your needs better - so YMMV.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
