Here are some application that can be seen and used in
computer and cellphones.

1. WORD PROCESSOR
MEANING
• A word processor is a device or computer program that provides for input,
editing, formatting, and output of text, often with some additional
features.
• Isa sa application na maari nating magamit sa computer ay word
processor. Ito ay ginagamit sa pag input o typing ng mga text o data,
ginagamit natin to pag gumagawa tayo ng report o presentation. Isa sa
halimbawa nito na alam kong pamilyar sa atin ay ang Microsoft Word.

HISTORY
• Word processors did not develop out of computer technology. Rather, they
evolved from mechanical machines and only later did they merge with the
computer field. The history of word processing is the story of the gradual
automation of the physical aspects of writing and editing, and then to the
refinement of the technology to make it available to corporations and
Individuals.
• The term word processing appeared in American offices in early 1970s
centered on the idea of streamlining the work to typists, but the meaning soon
shifted toward the automation of the whole editing cycle.

HISTORY
• At first, the designers of word processing systems combined existing
technologies with emerging ones to develop stand-alone equipment,
creating a new business distinct from the emerging world of the personal
computer. The concept of word processing arose from the more general
data processing, which since the 1950s had been the application of
computers to business administration.

2. WEB BROWSER
MEANING
• A web browser (also referred to as an Internet browser or simply a browser) is
application software for accessing the World Wide Web or a local website. When a user
requests a web page from a particular website, the web browser retrieves its files from a
web server and then graphically renders the page on the user's screen.
• Ang application na ito ay isa rin sa madalas na ginagamit natin. Ang mga halimbawa
nito ay Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple
Safari. Madalas ang akala natin ang web browser ay search engine, pero hindi, ang
search engine ay isa lamang website na pwedeng mag link sa atin sa iba’t ibang website.
Hindi tayo makakapunta sa iba’t ibang website kung hindi tayo gagamit ng Web
Browser. Bago natin ma open yung mga website na gusto nating buksan, halimbawa
youtube kaylangan muna nating gumamit ng Web Browser
 WEB BROWSER
HISTORY
• The first web browser, called WorldWideWeb, was created in 1990 by Sir Tim Berners-
Lee. He then recruited Nicola Pellow to write the Line Mode Browser, which displayed
web pages on dumb terminals.
• 1993 was a landmark year with the release of Mosaic, credited as "the world's first
popular browser". Its innovative graphical user interface made the World Wide Web
system easy to use and thus more accessible to the average person. This, in turn, sparked
the Internet boom of the 1990s, when the Web grew at a very rapid rate. Marc
Andreessen, the leader of the Mosaic team, soon started his own company, Netscape,
which released the Mosaic-influenced Netscape Navigator in 1994. Navigator quickly
became the most popular browser.

HISTORY
• Microsoft debuted Internet Explorer in 1995, leading to a browser war with
Netscape. Within a few years, Microsoft gained a dominant position in the
browser market for two reasons: it bundled Internet Explorer with its popular
Windows operating system and did so as freeware with no restrictions on usage.
The market share of Internet Explorer peaked at over 95% in the early 2000s.
• In 1998, Netscape launched what would become the Mozilla Foundation to
create a new browser using the open source software model. This work evolved
into the Firefox browser, first released by Mozilla in 2004. Firefox market share
peaked at 32% in 2010.
 WEB BROWSER
HISTORY
• Apple Computer released its Safari browser in 2003. Safari remains the
dominant browser on Apple devices, though it did not become popular
elsewhere.
• Google debuted its Chrome browser in 2008, which steadily took market
share from Internet Explorer and became the most popular browser in
2012. Chrome has remained dominant ever since.
• Microsoft released its Edge browser in 2015 as part of the Windows 10
release. (Internet Explorer is still used on older versions of Windows.)
