What is browser?

After having managed a 600 user network I'm quite surprised they managed to reach even 8%.

I would occasionally watch bits like that with Leno and think I bet he had to search hard to find people that dumb.
Now I realize its more the norm than the exception.

That was an interesting piece. So, I decided to "Google" the following for EXACT Definitions as I know it can be a little confusing.

What is a Browser?

Answer:

Surfing the web is made possible by Web browsers. Browsers are basically software programs that allow you to search for and view various kinds of information on the Web, such as web sites, video, audio, etc.
The Most Popular Web Browsers

Here are just a few of Web browsers available to you for a free download:

• Microsoft's Internet Explorer: Most Internet users are using Internet Explorer because it's easy to use and most Web sites are written with Internet Explorer in mind, meaning that they are compatible.
• Opera: Opera is another popular browser that's easy to use; however, it can have some compatibility issues with various websites.
• Mozilla's Firefox: Firefox is rapidly gaining ground right behind Internet Explorer because of its tabbed browsing, superior security features, and fast load.
• Mac Safari: Specifically for Mac users, Safari is an excellent choice for a Web browser, with fast load and good compatibility with most websites out there.

Do you see it now everyone? Google is brilliant. This is marketing at your finest, if I may say so. They created this YouTube video to promote their new WEB BROWSER (Google Chrome platform), so everyone is right now, 'cause they do both --- They are NOT just a search engine anymore, no siree, THEY ARE NOW a Web Browser too)!

Have a great one today, everyone!

Wow...this is really stupid. (no, not the people in the video...but the ones who would actually make something like this into a big deal).

Not everyone lives and dies by the online world and its terms.

Geeks FTW!

Was this video made by Michael Moore?

If you think thats stupid, did you ever read any of those lists of stupid responses that tech support people have had when dealing with technologically challenged people on support calls? Like the lady that thought the CD drive was a cupholdher. LOL
