Change the URL to whatever you want.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("http://www.mywebsite.com/"));
context.startActivity(intent);

Is that a link to your app? Anyway please take a few seconds to remove the unnecessary indentation. – Sam Mar 24 '13 at 17:07
