Firefox Usage Near 25% In Europe
PARENA writes "French researcher Xiti claims that Mozilla Firefox keeps winning terrain in Europe. 24.1% of Internet users in Europe use Firefox. Slovenia (44.5%), Finland (41.3%), Croatia (36.5%), and Germany (36.2%) lead the way, followed by a group of mostly Eastern European countries. Remarkably, The Netherlands is only at 13.3%, right before Andorra. Oceania maintains a slight lead over Europe, at 24.8%; the rest of the world trails at 11.9% to 15.1%."
.... In 3 - 2 - 1....
This is my opinion. To make sure you don't steal it, it's covered by the DMCA.
Wasn't the Amiga also popular in Europe at some point? Nothing wrong with the Amiga, just pointing out that you can't always use Europe as a gauge for success. ;-)

Whats Oceania? I thought it was a made-up supernation from Orwell's 1984.
Firefox is fast becoming newspeak for "web browser".
I don't need no instructions to know how to rock!!!!

> But most Americans consider Australia to be its own continent
That's just demonstrating the ignorance of Americans. Australia shares land borders with several other countries, such as Queensland to the north and Victoria to the south. Calling the whole continent "Australia" while ignoring the contributions of the other countries on the continent, Oceania, just because they're not populated by westernised whites is a combination of political supremism and just plain ignorance.
You're forgetting Linux, OS X, and Tux.

Oh really? I haven't seen anything great developed on Pluto.
Dude, GP poster has an ID lower than 5000 ! He could well have the data compounded from half of internet servers, including yours.
Or he could have been running a Gundam doll fan site for the past five years ("They're not dolls! They're action figures!!!"), thereby solidly representing the browser choices of the still-living-at-home-at-35 demographic.
Trust the Computer. The Computer is your friend.
have you ever been to Pluto? No you haven't, so don't go bad mouthing the Plutonians when you don't know shit about the things they've invented, what did they ever do to you? It seems declassifying them as a planet was just the start, when will this wave of Plutophobia stop?
What if Tetris was invented by Nazis?

New Zealand is Australia's Canada.
No, this being Slashdot, it normally ends in a Kleenex.

I don't find that remarkable at all. I lived in the Netherlands for a few years, and one of the things that struck me was how Microsoft-centric the universities were.
Isn't marijuana legal, or at least decriminalized in The Netherlands? That would be a plausible explanation of that statement.
