Safari! Like chrome but with timesaving features like Search-SnapBack and Reader

Remembering Lost Promise

[Ograws]

Opera is the best!!!!!!!

[thankyou112345]

I've used every web browser I could find. I must say, there is not ONE that is better than ALL. I use different ones for different purposes. BUT, there is one that is WORSE than ALL of them. Internet Explorer. I've used Opera, FF, Google Chrome, IE, RockMelt, Maxthon, and Avant. If you have not heard of some of the ones I mentioned, please check them out. Rockmelt especially if you love to use FB. They are all free and they all have pros and cons. But in my honest opinion, FF all the way. :D

[Justinba1010]

@thankyou112345 FIREFOX!!! Open-Source is always better!

[PizzuPoosa]

HOW FUCKING FASCINATING!

[101TheShaggy]

Make what readable?

[jjrcopaccount]

"And it's different from a search engine, which is a website that is used to search the Internet."

"Instead, a web browser is a program on your computer that allows you to visit websites."

Web browser = Program allows you to visit websites

Search engine = Website that is used to search the Internet

So, a Search engine is hierarchically under a Web browser. So, of course a Web browser isn't a Search engine. You need a Web browser to use a Search engine.

"Most people don't know what web browser they're using, or what a web browser even is."

How fucking retarded can you be? I am losing faith in humanity.

[goshobul]

WHERE IS OPERA?!

[neonrider93]

@goshobul opera isn't very good

[UglyCookiesNotApples]

@neonrider93 Opera isnt very good? Top 5 fastest browsers: 1: Google Chrome 2: Opera 3: Safari 4: Firefox 5: Internet Explorer. Opera has ''Opera Turbo'' By turning it on its fast. Its sometimes faster than google chrome.

[neonrider93]

@UglyCookiesNotApples Just a matter of opinion *sighs*

[blanchesfleurs]

how to change new versions for Google crome thanks

[th3thrilld3m0n]

Oops! Sry a prgram not a software, hmm...

[th3thrilld3m0n]

I agree w/ RulZ, I am in a center for Information Technology, I know. An OS is a platform to run applications. Applications are software.

[CourageousDestiny]

I remixed this by putting a sign saying 'What a Web Browser Is'

Hope you don't mind.

[MsJack12345678910]

WTF windows is a browser. the windows explorer is integrated in to windows which lets you browse. it just shows how stupid people ARE (google?) and plus visual studio is my most favourite program(google has lost the ability to predict that when you have a computer you automatic - ely make your browser is the most important thing. I HATE HOW GOOGLE MAKES PEOPLE SOO STUPID

>:-(

[TheSuperMarioBloggie]

lol internet explorer 9 HAHA 

[jwbjnwolf]

Google likes firefox!

Funny how they opened firefox instead of chrome.

and where is opera?

I am surprised they included safari in there.

And if your asking which is better for netbooks.

its opera

and I mean if you are trying to compare opera to firefox. when nothing is loaded, firefox uses around 120mb and opera uses around 80mb.

And Internet explorer uses 50 something mb. dunno about chrome, chrome is fast but I find opera perfect for me. especially on win8 with complete transparent theme.

[laugheenoutLoud]

Google Chrome>Safari=Firebox>Internet Explorer

[Mmesoapy]

I started to use chrome 2 months ago. I love chrome because it's the fastest browser (in my opinion). However, advertisements continuously pop up and I just can't handle this anymore. I tried everything to stop the adds popping up but it's just hot working. I can't use other web browser because they are much slower, but chrome is so annoying due to pop ups. So, I'm stuck. Can anyone help me? AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO GETS POP UP ADDS LIKE EVERY 5 MINUTES? AND CAN'T STOP THEM? HELP ME!

[Catalytera]

@Mmesoapy Yes you are the only one. I never had any popups with Chrome. I guess you are watching too much porn.

[Mmesoapy]

@Catalytera Um I asked for help, not for a random assumption. Maybe u watch lots of porn, so u just assume that other people do too, but i don't. and i really needed help and that's why i commented here. If u don't know anything about this what's the problem and how to fix it, just keep ur shitty comment to urself cuz i don't appreciate ur comment.

[HORNYxHOBO]

@Mmesoapy What kind of adverts? Try deleting Chrome and installing it again from another web browser.

[BTechUnited]

@Mmesoapy Have you tried the free cross platform plugin for chrome Ad Block Plus? It's well know and is by far the best anti pop up solution around.

[FUNNYFUNNYVIDEOSHAHA]

the best is srware iron

[NoisyHorseHD]

@Voxezi Then don't watch it.

[Voxezi]

@NoisyHorseHD Didn't, after a few seconds.

[xACRxXx]

I mostly use chrome, but the others are okay too.

[pidginet]

And yet they put Opera in Tags.

[SolidIncMedia]

The video doesn't exactly tell us how to find out which browser we're using. But good on 'em for educating people about what a browser is. Doesn't stop my clients from referring to their web browser as "The Internet", thinking that all browsers are made by "The Internet" or something.

[carla4867]

non ho capito niente ma non importa grazie

[chincorphd]

Love Firefox

[fafanull]

internet explorer FTW

[MaLeKALBtHIGE]

nice chrome go go go

[15098D]

GO CHROME

[GOREgio]

They forgot opera but put internet explorer.

Lulzzzz.

[MaybeAw3some]

I'm on opera right now, does it mean that I'm a hippie or I fuck the system or something?

[sayrith]

I am sorry, but if you do not know what a basic web browser is, then stay off the internet, for your sake and ours. I am not even asking if you know how to use a Flash app, or install an addon.

Truth is that.

[alexgamer7]

Opera rulz!!

[salehzinho]

Safari FTW!!

[conillusionist]

OPERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[YouNeedToSubscribeMe]

Anyone who uses internet explorer should not be using a computer.

[MsPinkflowers12]

[colossus999]

Wouldn't the operating system be the most important program on my computer?

[Danthesoccer]

@colossus999 Technically, it's is not a program. It's an OS.

[RulZGame]

@colossus999 OS is not a program...

[colossus999]

@RulZGame In what sense is an OS not a program?

[doeswayneexist]

@colossus999 Actually, I would go a step further and say that BIOS would be the most important program on a computer. Wiki: "The BIOS software is built into the PC, and is the first code run by a PC when powered on ('boot firmware')."

[mozzatavera]

0:46 wrong. File Browser (Windows Explorer, Finder, Nautilus etc) is more important. Without a Filebrowser you cant open the WebBrowser.

Will the 2 emailer's that are that are going at each other, pls do it some where else. The rest of us are trying to get to the facts about the questions.

[Nehmo]

The poor guy's voice isn't appropriate for announcement or instruction. Sorry. And a search engine isn't a website. A search engine uses a site to display a search box, and the results sometimes are displayed on a site. But the SE is not really a site.

`~- Nehmo

[driftwtme]

@Nehmo wow , you figured that all by yourself ? Take it easy on us rookies!

[Nehmo]

@driftwtme If you mean the part about the distinction between a search engine and a website, it's an important distinction, particularly for instructional videos on the basics of the internet. You can't assume anything of the viewer if the title is "What is a Browser?"

[6006133]

If you value freedom and openness, then go with FF. Chromium is very nice though.

[mfacktor]

Chrome is right for me

[Mechanicarts]

The web browser is the most important piece of s...oftware.

[txcharmy]

No response to video, I have used chrome on game website Pogo.com

I have a problem with each game having a window pop up telling me I have to download java. I have java downloaded with the most recent version, so don't understand why this window pops up and requires me to download.. Chrome does load very fast on Pogo vs Internet Explorer.

Internet Explorer

[pijala1]

eso es demasiao

[HoratioInveru]

Firefox is more complex. It's for those who use their web browser often and would like to be able to customize it. Chrome focuses more on simplicity and ease of use. Just find one that works for you!

[maapem]

internet explorer 9 is good for fast computers and real shitty for crap computers

google chrome is fast for slow computers but IE 9 is better for fast computers

[RobbieWheeler2]

@maapem no dude chrome is the fastest because it runs separate processes for each tab. fact 

[MrToad321]

@RobbieWheeler2 um...running separate processes for each tab doesn't make it faster. it just means that if one crashes the other wont. but it technically wont make anything faster. because the same amount of memory is still being use. memory doesn't change if your running separate process. it's like matter. no matter what you take out the matter is still the same.

[RobbieWheeler2]

@MrToad321 your talking about memory and in that case you are correct. processors work differently. in simple terms chrome makes it easier for the processor to process each tab by making them individual. for example you could open 70+ tabs on chrome and it would still be very responsive, IE would crash.

[MrToad321]

@maapem dude i couldn't agree with you more. i was running ie9 on my laptop and it was EPIC! but then i switched to a netbook and IE9 was crap!!!! but the funny thing is google chrome works well on both.

[50770536]

No Opera. Thumbs down.

[asdfqwertyfour]

they forgot Opera wtf.

[vid1688]

@asdfqwertyfour well the official Windows forgot Opera too, but it was first in the browser choice, i'm confused now...

[TEOKGaming]

@asdfqwertyfour They also forgot Sleipnir, Maxthon, K-Meleon, Lunascape, Avant, and many others. They just selected the four most popular ones here, as examples.

[tapo]

@asdfqwertyfour Don't worry. Everyone forgot Opera.

[PirateTHESteam1]

What's a browser? I thought that this was a troll by Google. Are there really people that don't know what a browser is?

[Task5003]

@PirateTHESteam1 Yes. I've met people who have thought their OS was their browser, or that their browser was their search engine;peeople have asked me if switching from IE to Firefox would mean they would "lose" Google, which they presumed was their browser... :S There's a video (I think it's on the site listed in this videos description), of Google asking people on the street what they think their browser is... 99% of the people were clueless. :D

@randomname123ish well ... google doesnt really care so much whether or not you use chrome, otherwise they wouldn't have paid millions to mozilla and contributed code to apple's webkit. all they really care about is you using google to search, and giving them ad revenues.
