Year-End Stats: IE7, Firefox, Vista, Mac
As is my wont, I’m going to do another of my periodic updates on the usage of Firefox by PCWorld.com visitors, as shown in our Web analytics numbers. And since 2007 is practically over, I’ll expand my report to look at some other notable numbers, too.
First, let’s look at browsers…
2007 has seen the first full year of competition between Internet Explorer 7–Microsoft’s first sorta-modern browser–and the upstart known as Firefox. IE7 has steadily grown in usage over the year, going from around 24 percent usage to 37 percent today. But despite some predictions that it would strike a mighty Microsoftian blow against Firefox, it hasn’t. Firefox started the year with 25 percent usage and ended it with 36 percent; it’s still growing, and as IE6 users have moved on, they’ve apparently been nearly as likely to jump to Firefox as they have to opt for Microsoft’s latest browser.
