reBlog from adamostrow: Firefox: 1,000,000,000 Downloads

I found this fascinating quote today:

Of course, more important than total downloads is the actual percentage of active web users that use the browser. Recent stats peg Firefox with 22 percent of the browser market, up about 4 percent from this time last year. Meanwhile, Safari continues to grow, while upstart Google Chrome is slowly gaining adoption. All of this continues to come at the expense of Internet Explorer, which is still steadily losing market share.adamostrow, Firefox: 1,000,000,000 Downloads, Jul 2009
