Quick working example using Apache HTTPComponents:

HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://www.google.com");
ResponseHandler<String> responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler();

try {
 String reqData = httpclient.execute(httpget, responseHandler).toString();
 httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
 handler.sendEmptyMessage(0);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {           
 handler.sendEmptyMessage(1);
} catch (IOException e) {
 handler.sendEmptyMessage(1);
}

private Handler handler = new Handler() { public void handleMessage(Message msg) {

switch (msg.what) {
  case 0: {
    // all ok, process data
  } break;

  case 1: {
    // show some errors
  } break;

}   } };

I'm just starting reading about Android, but I'll throw in my two cents here. Apparently Android uses Apache HTTPComponents library to do what you are looking to do. You should check out the HttpClient tutorials here: http://hc.apache.org/

I hope that helps.
