Quote “I have been proved wrong. Lamely enough I forgot people visiting techie blogs tend to favour Firefox, so deciding the market share based upon my site traffic was surely lame.”
Noobs use firefox. Opera is the prefered browser for anyone whos been on the internet longer than 2 years.

Ya Guru, for people who have little bit of affinity towards technology, IE looks crap, but for others IE is still the only browser available. No wonder it is still sitting pretty at No.1

I too prefer mozilla firefox than anyother as it gives me lot of addons to use from which i can use my browser as I want.. this is the main reason I never tried any other browsers.. (not even chrome….) IE is a flop..

Actually.. thats bcoz all GOOGLE NETWORKED sites have displayed an AD saying “try so-and-so website on google chrome” and see!
as though something different they would see if they use that browser!

Hmmm. I am still waiting for IE to lose popularity.

@Raju. Chrome really is in beta and is nowhere near perfection. It has some fatal bugs which, in some cases, prevent it from even running. Many of these issues are documented and they’re still figuring out the details. On my comp, for example, Chrome mysteriously stopped working. And even after several complete uninstalls, it still doesn’t work.

So right now, FF is my number one by default.

Personally I would rate chrome third best (after FF & Opera). IE doesn’t even qualify as a nominee in my list
Regarding Google products being in beta, it is just their policy of letting people know that they don’t consider their products to be perfect and they will keep on improving them!

i still prefer ie7 and firefox becaue they are safe and they are not in beta.
as most of google products are still in beta
all google applications are optimized for chrome.
because gmail is not work properly in my ie after the launch of chrome

There you go!!! Thanks a lot Jason, this proves how much wrong I was when I wrote the post
Anyway, the stats for 3 months are pretty consistent, but still very different than the actual market share which I will share in a while.
Thanks again
