That article is junk. They're ONLY tracking a small 20k group of people who have signed up for their system, not the millions of relevant people. They're also tracking servers which aren't being used by people. They spout numbers like 80% (IE 2h a day) and 40% (IE 6h a day) saying those are people with secret IE abuse. Then admit a few sentences later that only half the people being tracked are using Firefox regularly. (They're including people who aren't even using browsers other than IE in the list of people that use standards compliant browsers but secretly sneak back to IE).
Besides the bad stats source, if they did have a decent one it would still be questionable. No accounting for developers that need to open up IE and sit there hours making their software work specifically in IE after they spent days making it work in the first place. And the family computers with users that only use standards browsers, but have mothers and sisters that go and click the IE icon when they want to use the Internet. Hmm... IE reminds me of global warming. ~Daniel Friesen (Dantman, Nadir-Seen-Fire) [http://daniel.friesen.name] DBJDBJ wrote: > http://www.infoworld.com/d/windows/are-you-secret-ie-abuser-140 > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
