Supercharger question

What exactly does a Supercharger do? Besides the obvious "add horsepower".

Whats the difference between Turbo and a Supercharger?

Also, I hear you all talking about boost. What is the "boost" referring to? Is it the amount of pressure of air/fuel pushed into the engine by the supercharger?
