For the month of August...


Firefox - 68.7%
Internet Explorer - 20.6%
Opera - 6%
Safari - 2.3%
Chrome - 1.6% (a surprising but encouraging statistic)
Others - 0.8%

So the question is, what's wrong with 20.6% of you?

Safari on the Mac, Chrome on the PC. Wouldn't touch IE with a ten-foot pole. Or even a six-foot Czech.

Later: Oh, yeah--FF on Ubuntu.

I've hit the site with my Blackberry many times. I also use Firefox on my Linux netbook but I spoof it using Squid to say it's some silly name I can't even remember. Wonder why that isn't showing up? Ah... Now I remember why. The local MLS system uses some stupid proprietary IE code and I was trying to fool it into thinking I was running IE. I just changed it back...

Next month, look for a new browser called ShadMonster, running on a CP/M machine with 8 inch floppies :yes:

Safari here. FF 3.6.X doesn't like this Mac for some reason. I do miss it though.

WOW! I am surprised so few are using Chrome. I will use nothing else. I even downloaded it for my Ubuntu box.......Same box as this one....just dual boot.

I'll run Chrome in a VM window only.
I have my suspicions with Safari, or any other Apple software product... resource problems included.

Jeff, do your stats separate Mobile Safari from the desktop version? I'm just curious to know how many other people (other than me, that is) view The Island on their iPhones.

I use Firefox a LOT and Chrome frequently... mostly ham radio sites.

And Safari on the iPhone. :yes:
