Browsing World Wide Web from the terminal

We usually browse internet from browsers which have fancy gui, buttons, gestures, shortcuts. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer are few of them.
Being a geek we love to do things the hard way :-) Simply because it is fun!!
How about browsing internet from the plain old terminal? Amazing huh!! w3m is installed default by ubuntu which provides browsing internet from terminal
try it becoz it is FUN!

well, there's an alternative called lynx... I'm using that. Text browsers are really necessary when you work with a machine where no GUI is available.
