Surfing

On the world wide web, surfing means to move from one

web page to another, usually in an undirected manner. When surfing,
the user typically visits pages based on what interests him/her at the

moment.

The term comes from “TV channel surfing” but instead of

clicking on the buttons of the remote, the user jumps from page to

page by clicking on the link in the web page.

Surfing is an activity that

stared with the advent of the world wide web. With hypertext links,

users can go not only from one part of a document to another, but

also from one document to another, including those located in remote
sites. Surfing is a favorite pastime for millions of people around the

world who have access to the internet. Many users are hooked on it,

spending countless hours doing casual searches or other online

activities. Some do it to kill time.
