I use the gamepad for most of my surfing, to bad there is no Skype. I use miiwerse as a slow communication with one of my sons that does not live at home. 

It is more comfortable than the iPad, and cheaper.
If you take five minutes to learn all the controller features you can use, your surfing gets so easy and efortless. I do not however use the tilt fast-scroll but that is mostly because I selldom is in a such a hurry.
It is so easy to get to links (even page numbers that are so small that you have to zoom on the iPad to even touch the right one.
In games it would be cool to always be able to clear the TV screen from all abundandt information, but the games that use it are better than those on plattforms without tis ability.
Asynchronos play: Cool but have not used it very much.
The pictionary game in Game & Wario is a family favorite.

I will buy more Wii U:s and use them as a cheaper and better alternative than iPad ( we have two in the family already).

Use the WiiU chat?
