Some of the information gathered for me by the various reporting tools I’m running server side is interesting. Most of it is extraneous bullshit that doesn’t make any difference to me one way or the other.
This I’d but under interesting.
IE 7.0 28.3 %
Firefox 2.0 25.6 %
IE 6.0 24.2 %
Safari 9.9 %
Firefox 1.5 2.2 %
Opera 1.4 %
What does this mean? IE 6 compliance issues are still a concern as 1 in 4 users are using that browser. And I hate IE 6 compliance issues.
Bottom line: This site is best viewed with Firefox. If you don’t already have it, think about downloading it.

interesting numbers. i’m a web developer by trade and the startup i work for began with IE7 being a larger percentage of our viewers. as we grew IE6 has far outpaced IE7.
every site has a different market so maybe yours will continue to have IE7 and FF2 with stronger numbers than IE6. i could wish nothing better on a guy maintaining a site that i dig – so my fingers are crossed for you.
sadly i think most sites that get a lot of traffic tend toward browser percentages that reflect the total browser market share and, sadly, that still means IE6 is most prevelant.
like i said, i hope you can ignore IE6 because it is a real bitch…
p.s. where are the iPhone numbers ;-)

Firefox is ok but I think it’s market share is driven by Microsoft haters. I say why fight the machine? The only reason they don’t squash Firefox like a gnat (or buy it) is because they can’t legally dominate the market.
