Firefox Achieves 10% Global Market Share
sebFlyte writes "ZDNet is reporting
that according to OneStat's latest figures, Firefox
has passed the 10 percent market share mark. At 11.5 percent, it's still got
a long way to go to reach Internet Explorer's 85.5 percent, but it's heading in
the right direction. The report also mentions some odd geographical variation:
Firefox's market share is almost three times higher in the US than UK, for
example." From the article: "...other companies have noticed a decline in
Firefox over recent months. Last month, Web applications provider
NetApplications reported that the open source browser's share of the market
dropped by 0.7 percentage points from August to September. Although this wasn't
the first time that Firefox' share has dropped, RedMonk analyst James Governor
said he believes the overall trend for Firefox is upwards."
How can you not cheer for the underdog here? Firefox ain't playin about making themselves a worthy adversary of Bill Gates and Co. I kinda like that. Although the Web hasn't fully seen the light of Firefox, since not all websites I go to accept it, it's stuff fun to use. Love that tabbing feature. Plus I like being all nerdy with web browsing...I believe that is one of the extensions.
