Auto fill, or auto complete, is a preference that a user can use that allows the web browser to remember what info you type into forms, so that when you come to a similar one, it will automatically fill it in for you.

For example, if you are commonly purchasing stuff online, and are tired of entering you address every time, the browser auto fill option can remember your address and fill it out for you, usually with a click of the button.

Every web browser has different auto fill options, but most require an additional addon, such as RoboForms.

What is the longest domain name?

Longest legal second level domain name is 63 charectors (starting with a letter)

Longest registered domain that I know of: http://3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592.com/

Longest possible domain would be limited by the systems will power with the ability to create (theoretically) infinate subdomains.

There seems to actually be a restriction on the number of subdomains and/or characters left of the dot - the maximum number allowed (including the TLD) seems to be 253 all told as in this claim of the longest domain:

What are the best free web browsers?

Comparison

  • Internet explorer used to be the best browser ever... but recently, I've noticed the browser getting slower and not as fast, even if it looks nice.
  • I now use Google Chrome as my favourite web browser. It's fast and looks good as well, without being too slow.
  • Firefox is a good browser as well. I test the beta of the newest version, and it's pretty good. Part of the reason I like it is that you can have different tab groups open at the same time. This is very useful, so I don't have a long list of tabs all showing at the same time.
  • I haven't ever used any other browsers, and I'm happy enough with the browsers I have, mainly Google chrome.
  • If anyone else knows of another browser, please add it to the list.

Verdict...

I think that Google Chrome is the best free web browser available. It's available to download on Google's website. Just try searching for it.
