Silk on Fire

So why a new browser for the Kindle Fire?  Because its got new features that make it better.  Most people probably don't want or need to know about so-called cloud computing but that's a big part of what makes Silk so cool...All it really means is that part of the "work" that needs to be done so you can surf the Web is shipped off through the network to other computers (that are part of the Amazon system).  These "other" computers are big and fast (and there's a lot of them) so the work required to get you what you want on the Web is done by them - not by your Kindle (that would be a lot slower).

Like I said, you don't really need to know about the cloud to enjoy Fire, but the more you know...There are a lot of videos and help on using Silk on Amazon too..
