    It really makes me sad that IE has that large of a market share! People need to research the software they use.

    I agree with you Jay.

    And it even makes me more sad when IE gains some extra share while other great browsers loses it…

  3. Kelson says:

    That’s odd. My own site shows IE dropping from 68.7% in April to 68.4% in May, with Firefox climbing from 23.1% to 23.4%.

    I know my numbers are unusual, but I’m surprised to see the trends moving in the opposite direction.

    I can’t see that 0.02% differences are likely to be much more than expected statistical error… Apart from the Firefox/Safari changes, not a lot seems to have happened.
