As I understand it the Bitcoin is HTML and bitcoind is Netscape

It does not make a lot of sense, to disagree/disaprove of HTML, and hail a Netscape alternative.

Research litecoin. It'll have a larger user base, just give it time.

Why? I have researched litecoin and I don't get why everyone spams this everywhere.

Some have said that it fixes potential issues with Bitcoin (quicker confirmation time for instance). However no one really knows how much confidence will be needed for real transactions at this point, so most of the fixes are of questionable importance.
