Open a webpage in the default browser

Question

I want my users to be able to click a button to open my company's webpage in the default browser when clicked. How would I do this?

I'm using VB.net so all .net examples are acceptable.

Dim URL As String 
Dim browser As String = TextBox1.Text
URL = TextBox1.Text
Try
    If Not (browser = TextBox1.Text) Then
        Try
            Process.Start(browser, URL)
        Catch ex As Exception
            Process.Start(URL)
        End Try
    Else
        Process.Start(URL)
    End If

Catch ex As Exception
    MsgBox("There's something wrong!")
End Try
