By | July 2, 2014



And now we do the desktop.

Starting with Internet Explorer, it looks like Microsoft’s web browser has finally regained what it has lost last year, up from 58.17% to 58.38 (0.21 point increase).

Next is Google Chrome, which is now as close to 20% mark as it has ever been, up from 17.73% to 19.34% (1.61 point increase).

Mozilla’s Firefox on the other hand continues to lose its market share, down by 1.27 point, from 16.81% to 15.54%.

After a small blip, Safari is down again, from 5.72% to 5.28% (0.44 point decrease).

Lastly, Opera, which is likely to reach the 1% mark soon, down from 1.16% to 1.05% (0.11 point decrease)

That’s all for now, folks.

    As an Opera 12 user I can tell you that yes indeed Opera will not only reach 1% but keep dropping until it is only included in the “other” collection.
    If you want to use a very simple browser that looks and behaves like Chrome, you use Chrome.
    You should include the O12 users as a separate statistic.

    It’s more capable than it used to be. It’s clear and uncluttered as users seem to like these days. What’s missing a compelling reason to use it over Chrome.
