Mobile browser war: mobile Internet No. 1

World Wide Web (WorldWideWeb) is a great translation, whether it is a font, pronunciation or connotation. It is a browser that makes the vast and intricate Internet world simple, convenient, and easy to share. Without a doubt, browsers are the most important client for online surfers.

Browser for Internet Navigation

When Tim berneas-Li TimBerners-Lee of the European Nuclear Physics Laboratory wrote the world's first web browser in 1990, he dreamed of finding a place to share information, whether it's just draft or polished data. For him, the important thing is the content, not the seemingly cool form. It's not hard to understand why Mark Andson MarcAndreessen) won't beat Tim when adding image formats to the Mosaic browser, because images consume more space than words and may cause network congestion.

But at that time, I am afraid neither of them thought that Mosaic browsers would have a revolutionary impact on Internet development. WWW attracts more and more users and inspires countless business creations. It has moved from information publishing, customer service to sales agency to the Internet. The Federal Express, which used a scanning gun in the 1980s s to track the whereabouts of the goods, also did not miss the opportunity brought about by WWW in 1990s. On the site of Federal Express, you can query each step of the parcel delivery process. In August 9, 1995, Netscape, a Netscape company created by Mark Andson, opened in New York.CommentYes: "it took 43 years for General Dynamics to reach the market value of 2.7 billion, while Netscape took only one minute.

How important is a browser? Yahoo was still unknown at the beginning. However, when Mark Anderson sets the default value of the "online search" button of the Web browser as Yahoo for his personal preferences, the total daily user traffic of Yahoo reached 14 million. After that, if a company wants to select the default value for this button, it will have to pay an annual fee of $5 million to Wangjing.

The huge business opportunities brought by browsers have finally attracted Microsoft's attention. In the year when Netscape went public, Microsoft couldn't wait to launch InternetExplorer, and became the world's most widely used browser by bundling with the operating system and making it free of charge. When people think of their initial "net touch" experience, they have to mention the IE icon with a halo like Saturn. It is exactly the same, opening an unprecedented rich world for the masses and helping the Internet penetrate into the hearts of the people.

Until today, Mark Anderson was surprised by the browser's "Longevity" and increasing importance. He believes that as more and more applications and services are published through browsers, browsers are increasingly becoming the core of Web innovation. An obvious example is social networks, it has replaced instant messaging as the most popular communication method for young people.

Without a browser, there will be no widespread use of the Internet, and no exciting applications such as search, maps, and SNS. Browsers not only provide users with navigation in the Information Ocean, but also point out an endless direction for the development of the Internet industry. With this entry, we have the so-called "desktop voice" to some extent.

After the browser becomes smaller

When you switch from a 14.1 inch LCD screen to a 2.4 inch small screen, will there be a sudden drop from a luxury yacht to a canoe?

Yes, the Internet on mobile phones can be said to be an inch of money. Too much information is difficult to read, and too little information lacks value. Compared with desktop browsers, mobile browsers work in Mobile Embedded environments with weak CPU processing capabilities, less storage space, and small display screens. This is doomed that excellent mobile browsers must meet more demanding requirements. If it does not bring a good experience, the mobile Internet will also be unable to do anything.
