OneStat just released web browser usage stats again. This time the numbers are pretty impressive for Firefox. From their site:The most popular browsers on the web are:
| 1. | Microsoft IE | 85.45 % |
| 2. | Mozilla Firefox | 11.51 % |
| 3. | Apple Safari | 1.75 % |
| 4. | Netscape | 0.26 % |
| 5. | Opera | 0.77 % |
The most popular browsers in the USA are:
| 1. | Microsoft IE | 80.73% |
| 2. | Mozilla Firefox | 14.07 % |
| 3. | Apple Safari | 3.55 % |
| 4. | Netscape | 0.76 % |
| 5. | Opera | 0.77 % |
I find it intersting that Firefox has a better usage share in the US than in the rest of the web. Most of the numbers I’ve seen show the US as using IE more.I have to say that I don’t find these company’s stats to be completely reliable. Looking at stats gathered from one company’s statics software is kind of a skew. However, since most of these studies show similar numbers, they must be fairly accurate.
