web browser

A web browser is a form of application software that renders HTML files to display them on the screen.

Web browsers can be multi-functioning, they can be used to retrieve, present, and transverse information. They can also be used to access Web servers in private networks.

More commonly, a web browser is used to access the World Wide Web.

Practical applications for web browsers include the ability to use social networks to keep in touch with old friends, with family, and meet new friends from around the globe.

There are several different web browsers available for download and use. The most popular browsers, in no particular order, are, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, Google Chrome and Flock.

You'll find bloggers talking about web browsers at sites like The Tech Watch Blog and The Digital Home Blog.
