I read e-mail. I'm not yet comfortable with browsing the web through Emacs, but I'm slowly getting to it.
Emacs is a superior environment for anything having to do primarily with text. Mail is mostly text, so it's a natural fit. Most of the actually useful content on the Web is text as well, so a large percentage of browsing can benefit from this environment as well.
