Launch Browser via Monkey Runner

Registered by Zach Pfeffer

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Monkeyrunner Tests for Common Android Usage 12.05" for updated plans.

From http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/monkeyrunner_concepts.html:
"With monkeyrunner, you can write a Python program that installs an Android application or test package, runs it, sends keystrokes to it, takes screenshots of its user interface, and stores screenshots on the workstation."
We'll use this API to launch and interact with the browser. We'll go to a few know sites including, youtube.com, google.com and facebook.
