Change text that appears in browser tab

I would like to change the text that appears at the top of the page in my wordpress blog. See my screen shot for exactly what I am talking about.

http://screencast.com/t/OTlmZDFmOWEt

Currently it shows the name of the page. My home page is titled "home" in the menu using all in one seo and the Heading on the page reads "Welcome" I would like the top of the page to say something other then "Welcome". Something more descriptive would be good.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks!
Amanda

 I might be misunderstanding your problem but give this a go...

Go to "Settings" then "All in One SEO" - You should see a field for "Home Title" Enter the title you want there.

If you using a static page for your posts...the title should be controlled by All in One SEO that is on the respective static page.

Hope that helps...Let me know if I misunderstood.

 Yes, the text that you see on your tabs are actually the same as the page titles.

 And for those who do not use wordpress, you can change it by configuring the meta title for your webpage though your web design software or tool.

 That works. I've been searching for an answer to this problem for almost a week. Thank you so much.

 I can't find the "all in one seo" under wordpress settings. There is no option listed for this. Where would I find it?
