IE usage drops again while Firefox usage increases

Link
Firefox approaches 21% usage while IE drops below 70% according to Netcraft. They also show the areas that FF usage has crossed the 50% usage mark.

 

Go Firefox go. I guess I helped that number. I've been recommending Firefox for a long time now.

 

Let this crap die !! I have to work hours to fix my site to work with IE ...Also heard a news about chrome passing the global 1% share ..

 

this was pretty obvious . Firefox is way better and has more features . Almost everyone I know has already switched to it.

 

I thought everyone was using firefox. I have no idea how anyone can stand ie

 

what? IE has 70% usage?

When I check analytics, 97% of my site users use firefox, and we're talking 8k uniques/day


I would have thought FF would be like 80%, chrome 10%, IE 5% and the rest make up the extra 5%

 

survival of the fittest....

 

Yeah, Keep it up FireFox, We are with you

I believe that IE is still on top because, in Asia, mostly Net Cafes are just with default Explorer "Internet Explorer" mostly cafe don't install other softwares, & I believe almost 75% users here use internet at Cafes. So, I think its only reason for Internet Explorer.

 

Is your site webmaster related? My Awstats shows 84% IE, 10% FF.

 

Not at all ...lol

 

Depends if the site you are connecting to relies on ActiveX. IE isn't so bad as a basic browser, but firefox is better. I find Opera to be quicker for surfing though.

 

Anyone having an average knowledge in internet and softwares would prefer Firefox ..

 

When IE was having the monopoly, it did not care for customer requirements for upgradation...and gathered a lot of annoyance....for which it is paying a price..now...

When you are a leader...do take good care of your followers....or else...you are axing your own foot

 

I'm in the Army, something I have noticed with all Government computers is they only have IE. No FF or any other option, and you may not download anything without administrator permission, etc.

 

I wish I could get my OfficeLive account to work in FF or Chrome.

 

Microsoft - among the worlds biggest company for tech computer uses IE as their official and default browser.
Almost every user using Mirosoft OS has IE installed.

 

...and that it is default on windows.

 

I have have 70% of my visitors ff on my sites. This is probably because my visitors are mostly webmasters. As long as corporations keep IE the standard I don't think FF is going to make big with the general consumer.

 

And that is bad news from the web developers' perspective. I as a programmer already have to worry about an extra browser when being asked to make sure cross-browser compatibility is preserved by the code. Wondering what's next, a Yahoo browser?

 

1 out of every 5 web surfers use Firefox. THAT is big and growing while IE is shrinking. In Europe, 1 out of 2 use Firefox. THAT is bigger!
