2. E-ESTONIA AND THE INTERNET Estonia is considered one of the most advanced countries in e-services, where majority of services are available online. You will see this also throughout the upcoming chapters. In order to enjoy the e-services one needs to have a device – computer (desktop or laptop), smartphone, tablet – and an internet connection. For browsing the internet and/or using the e-services of the Government of Estonia and local municipalities and/or other institutions, we would recommend using following browsers: Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge

, Firefox

.

Occasionally, when you are visiting some websites with older technologies, Microsoft Edge might lead you to Internet Explorer

. In this case, click

on the button that opens a new window. Internet is endless, so there are lots of interesting webpages to visit according to your interest. To find interesting webpages, use search engines. The most popular search engine in Estonia is Google (google.com). In most cases the wireless internet is available everywhere and/or you can also have internet on your phone via the SIM card. Note that there are also free of charge internet points available in local libraries, where you can use public computers, the internet and print and scan if needed. You can ask support from the librarian. Note that the session times in libraries might be limited and you are not allowed to install any programmes or download large sized files.
