Firefox Up to 31.8 (15/08/2005 (19:57hs))

Surprising browser stats

This is interesting. According to SiteMeter, the excellent service I use to monitor my Web traffic, 31.8% of all visitors to this site are now using Firefox. That's up from 24.76% last October. While the Firefox share grew 7%, the share for Internet Explorer 6.X dropped almost exactly the same amount, slipping from 64.88 to 57.37%.

Another curious stat jumped out of this chart, however: Internet Explorer 7.X has gone from 0 to 2.51% market share since Beta 1 was released just over a week ago. That's much higher than I would have expected.

Of course, these numbers are for a site that is aimed at techies and bleeding-edge types. Out in the mainstream, the numbers are very different, I bet.
