Apache down, IIS up
Doctor Memory writes "Netcraft's June 2006 web server survey is out, and it shows IIS taking a dramatic upturn, at the expense of Apache. One of the biggest reasons cited is domain registrar Go Daddy switching to IIS for the domains it "parks". The report does go on to note that IIS is also making solid gains in active sites (including some large blog hosts), and further notes that it appears that large hosting companies are dropping Linux." Statistics are fun to play with, of course, but note that Apache's market share is approximately 30% higher than IIS's at the moment.
No link is necessary. Microsoft and Bush bashing in the same post is automatically a +5 Insightful. Now if the author had also worked in a slam on the RIAA, they would have a Slashdot Trifecta. Maybe there should be a special rating for that, like +100 Genius or something.
