NetApplications Sept 08 data
September 08 data from NetApplications is out. Time to go trend-digging!
Note: I know that a lot of you have issues trusting data from a single source such as NetApplications for browser and market share but the way I look at it is that it’s a good source of data to observe changing trends.
- IE6/7 usage has dropped nearly 1% from August (from 71.96% to 71.02%)
- Firefox 2/3 usage down slightly (from 19.25% in August to 19.04% in September
- Google Chrome ended the month at 0.78% (compare this to Opera 9.x which ended the month at 0.67%)
- Intel Mac share up to 5.8% (from 5.44% for August).
- Linux is at 0.91% (down from 0.03% the previous month)
- iPhone market share stands at 0.32% (up a fraction from 0.3% in August)
