Firefox Usage Climbing

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the hey-thats-nothing dept.

kbox writes "According to the Amsterdam analytics firm onestat The Firefox browser has jumped from a global market share of 8.7% to a whopping 13% since April 2005. The national usage of Firefox make some interesting reading, too, with Firefox making up 16% in the USA, 24% in Australia and a huge 39% in Germany." Unsurprisingly, on Slashdot we skew the averages somewhat, with Firefox weighing in at 65% of our traffic... but sadly 18% of our Firefox users need to upgrade to the latest version ;) Go do that now.

  1. Are tags edited? by LS · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This story was tagged as a dupe, but after reloading the story, the "dupe" tag disappeared and was replaced with "firefox, mozilla". I assume the editors edit the tags, as they used to often say "bullshit", "stupid", etc, but now seem to be a lot more tame...

      Pity they don't edit the articles more, then they wouldn't have to edit the tags so much.
