Surfing the Web
Now, we'll take you through one of the most fun things to do on your DROID: surfing the
Web. You may have heard web surfing on the DROID is a better experience than ever
before—we agree! We'll show you how to touch, zoom around, and interact with the
Web like never before with the web browser on your DROID. You'll learn how to set and
use bookmarks, quickly find things with the search engine, open and switch between
multiple browser windows, and even easily copy text and graphics from web pages.

Web Browsing on the DROID

You can browse the web to your heart's content via your
DROID's Wi-Fi or 3G connection. Like other smartphones
using a Webkit browser, your DROID has one of the most
capable mobile browsing experiences available today. Web
pages look very much like web pages on your computer. With
the DROID's ability to zoom in, you don't have to worry about
the smaller screen size inhibiting your web browsing
experience. In short, web browsing is a much more satisfying
experience on the DROID.
Choose to browse in portrait or landscape mode, whichever you prefer. Quickly zoom
into a video by double-tapping it or pinching open on it, which is natural to you because
those are the motions you use to zoom in text and graphics.
