  • urbanrant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Actually my blog which is not getting a lot of traffic gets about 25% of hits from Firefox.

  • Maxpower57, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1you mean people still use IE?
    im supprised this hasn't happened yet
    i dont know a single person who uses IE anymore.
    • roflcopter, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Im surprised too, I though people would have wised up to the fact that IE just plan sucks. Everyone I know uses firefox, but thats probably cause I told them too :)

      GO FIREFOX!! w00t!
  • jimio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You have to understand that the 84.70% is made up of 81% average Joes who are baffled by the Inter.comnetwebwork and 3.7% is devs testing for the Joes :-)

    Seriously though, that is good news for FF.
    • NoodlyAppendage, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1We shall not speak of of dev testing on a Sunday. Especially when IE is concerned.. The mere thought of css hacks is enough to ruin our last day of the weekend.
  • NoodlyAppendage, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I see moving everyone at our company to FF has paid off.. All 14 of us :)

    Seriously, good game Firefox devs.. you guys rock.
  • dtfinch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They say Konqueror accounted for 0.01%. I'm sure the scores would be much different if we counted digg users.

    • DiggNazi2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hey SearchEngines, when are you going to lean how to stop posting non-deal stories to the deals section?

      Hmm?

      Frankly, we're tired of your spam.
