Browser stats

browser stats

Firefox is the browser I am seeing most often here on vowe's magic flying circus. IE continues to decline but this picture may change when Firefox 2 and IE 7 come out. Safari has a sizeable chunk, and interestingly enough Opera is still used by quite a few visitors here. I hope the design is working for you since I have not tested in Opera.

The Mac continues to hold an 18% share, so one third of the Mac users must be on Firefox instead of Safari. I have tested the last two RCs of Firefox 2 and it is really fast. Still, I am a Safari user.

How are the stats for your site?

Yep. Your site works perfect in Opera 9 on Linux and OSX, as it did in Opera 8.5x on Linux.

70.87% Firefox
21.74% Internet Explorer
03.91% Safari
02.61% Opera
00.43% Camino
00.43% Interwebthingy Exploder 8.0000001

Your diagram looks like the ones from Google Analytics. If it is, you could easily check how many Macs are on Firefox. As far as browser - platform combinations are concerned, I see the following:

43.91% Firefox 1.5.0.6 - Windows XP
18.26% Internet Explorer 6.0 - Windows XP
06.09% Firefox 1.5.0.6 - Macintosh PPC
06.09% Firefox 1.5.0.7 - Windows XP
02.17% Firefox 1.5.0.6 - Windows 2000
02.17% Safari 419.3 - Macintosh Intel
01.30% Opera 9.00 - Windows XP
01.30% Firefox 1.5.0.5 - Linux (unknown version)
01.30% Firefox 1.5.0.4 - Windows XP
01.30% Safari 419.3 - Macintosh PPC

These are the top ten, further down I even have someone coming in with IE on Windows Server 2003...

45,3% IE, 43,34% Firefox, 5,78% Opera, 3,3% Safari, 1,14% Mozilla, 0,52% Netscape.

Yes, more IE than Firefox at my site - something i really don't like :)
