Top 12 Browser Versions
StatCounter published a chart representing the top 12 browser versions existing; which we can distribute among continents or even particular countries. In this data I’m pretty sure you can find some surprises, take a look.
Ok, there’s no surprise if I say Internet Explorer is ruling over the world (Microsoft already had a lot of problems regarding this); but what do you think about Internet Explorer 6 (developed in 2001) being the third most used browser? Or that Firefox 2.0 has more popularity than Opera 10?
Here are some other facts:
- Worldwide data says that Internet Explorer 8, 7 and 6 are the most used browsers.
- In the US, Firefox 3.5 is the third most used browser; behind IE 8 and 7.
- In Africa, IE 6 is the most used browser with 29% of the current share.
- In Antarctica the most used browser is Firefox 3.0. Yes, I said Antarctica.
These charts are using one year stats, from May 09 to May 10.
And you? Which is your favorite browser?

aah Opera is such a pity.. it brings in all the innovation and stuffs which everyone copies and still ends up low..
I think chrome is the fastest growing browser out there.. I kind of like it too.. It’s fast, sleek.. FF is buggy and always eats up memory.. I.E no comments..
