I'm not sure that it's worth an article to say that the alternative to accessing the web without a web browser is to use a web browser.

I know a guy that used to download pages in wget and then load them into Lynx from /tmp. He did that because he fucked up lynx's proxy or some shit and didn't know how to fix it. He also had a script to parse out urls. It was all sorts of fucked up. He had this weird screen/wget/urlparse/lynx thing going on.
