netscrap

net-skrap \noun\ Generic term used to loosely describe or in reference to internet 'debris', collectively including unresolved URL's, undelivered emails, incomplete orts of coding, and all other miscellaneous bits of erroneous data and directives uploaded or otherwise 'sent' to the World Wide Web (www) via the Internet which were never delivered, produced no result, or failed to cause an expected or intended action.

Similar to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, somewhere out there floating aimlessly in cyberspace we'll one day in the future discover a huge, galaxy-like mass of 'netscrap'; soon after we'll start the argument over who's going to pay to have it cleaned up!

Netscape

A browser that lost the browser wars to Internet Explorer long ago. The last version that wasn't over-commercialized was Netscape 4.6. The current version is 7.2, which is loaded down with a lot of AOL junk and advertizing. It is inferior to nearly all browsers on the market, except for Internet Explorer, which it is slightly better than

Firefox>Everything Else>Netscape>Internet Explorer Shells (avent, maxthon)>Internet Explorer

Did you check out the new Netscape Browser beta 8.0? I threw up when I saw the interface and now my computer is ruined.

netscapism

netscapism n (net + escapism) - an inclination to retreat from unpleasant realities into the electronic network, or virtual world.

In the past, the wild nature and remote countries were the favorite refuge for escapists. Now netscapism, especially among adolescents, has grown into a serious social problem.
