To play devil's advocate (because you called me "fucking stupid" in your initial post, so I'm inclined to disagree with anything you say in this thread), why is it such a bad thing if your mom thinks that Google is the internet? What possible reason could she have for knowing what the internet is and how it actually works. If she finds what she needs to find on Google, let her enjoy it for crying out loud. This further proves that you do not know the average computer user as you always seem to claim you do.

All that said, it does bug the crap out of me when people type in a URL into the Google toolbar. I remember reading/hearing about some crazy statistic about that. Apparently an incredible number of Google searches are URLs.
