& if you ask me, I wouldn’t say
that browser wars are over
(I know you posted this article
a long time ago, maybe it should be
updated)

just see, today:

Firefox 3 will debute in
october 2007

Safari is coming to windows
firt public beta has been
released

Opera will release it’s new
major upgrade, Opera 9.5
(codnamed kestrel) later
this year(2007)
& Opera 10! is planned to the
beginning/middle of 2008

& I’ve heard some rumors that IE8
will arrive much sooner than
expected.

Thanks, obviously it’s a two-year-old article.

Not just *my* blog readers, but readers of tehcnology, software related blogs in general – the TechCrunch numbers are another obvious example.

Again, I am not making statements about overall market share, since I actually quote those maketshare numbers and they would not support such a statement. Some people can read a bit in betwen the lines and understand humor, others can not. But again, if it’s so awful, painful ..etc – I am not holding a gun to your head to read it

Well, then you should have started with this, that you think *your* blog readers are early adaptors, and you expect the future to look like this. (which, again is probably a very long stretch, but it would have make sense up to a level)

Instead you wrote: “There are no Browser Wars anymore – FireFox has won”. And you base that on a pie chart, which you don’t even say where it comes from….(one has to guess that is based on your traffic). Even worst, you quote overall market numbers. But looking at them there is no way that a reasonable thinking person would claim that the “browser war” is over.

No… really, you should think first what you write, and how people can understand it, and then post your blog entry. This entry is awful.

You’re misreading me. Of course I am not claiming blog stats to be representative of the entire market – why would I quote overall market numbers otherwise? Blog readers are known to be early adaptors – their stats don’t represent the whole market, but are a forward-looking indicator.

However, if reading it causes you pain, there is a simple solution… and it does not involve painkillers

this is ridiculous. How can you conclude that your own blog stats is in any way representative to a whole market. It is really painful to read this.

Jordan, thanks for explicitely explaining what I hinted to, i.e. bloggers being somewhat more experimental, advanced users, early adopters.

I have no clue how to check Yahoo’s browser stats, but I certainly expect it to be closer to FireFox’s overall market share, which, as I stated in my post, is 10%.

So crap or not, so far we are saying the same .. the difference being that I believe in this case the early adopters will be followed soon.

FYI, here’s a geographic breakdown of FF market share.

don’t deny the browser war == foolish

This guy says the second browser war is already over.
An extract:
There’s a good chance that if you’re reading this, you are a blogger yourself – go and check your visitor stats. The future is here
Come on buddy, that is ridiculous…
