Hi, I have been using ubuntu for last 2 days and I have got to say I am in love with it. Re-lives the excitement of using computers in me to the point of abandoning windows :). Out of curiosity , I would to know is it possible to browse the internet in terminal? Thanks in advance , you guys did a great job.

Try links2
sudo apt-get install links2then
links2If I remember currect CTRL+G lets you type in URL :)
Edit:
You could also try lynx
sudo apt-get install lynx
Then:
lynx
To read about how to use the browsers or any other app just type
man <appname>
In this case:
man lynx
and
man links2
