Google Chrome overtakes IE to become No. 1 Browser

Google Chrome is much time better than other browsers

Try reading the whole first post.... not just looking at the pretty pictures. I already pointed that out.

I saw some posts above and that was the reason for the reply.
If these stats would have been posted on 18th or on early 19th, it might have made sense.

I see no reason how Chrome has taken No. 1 position for a data that is for specific interval of time.

IE regains its position as of today...

I know that. I'm not hiding that fact as I said that IE regained it's position. However the fact that IE lost it's number one position (even if only for a day) for the first time in over 13 years is significant. I think that record is older than a lot of members here.

According to StatCounter which tracks visits to millions of websites Google Chrome overtook IE on Sunday reaching 32.70% of browser market share compared to IE's 32.48%.

Google Chrome has more home computer users and therefore has a higher usage rate at the weekends while IE has more work related users where employees have less choice in the browser they use. As a result IE regained it's number one position on Monday however it's temporary loss of it's number one status is significant.
While data tracking in the past hasn't being that accurate it's believed that IE overtook Netscape in the fourth quater of 1998, a position it has held since. This means this in the first time in over 23 years that IE lost it's top position. Forget your silly "FireFox FTW" replies, that's a record that lasted a hell of a long time.

IE's usage has being slowly declining while Google Chromes has being growing at a crazy rate. It's expected that Chrome will pass IE on a regular basis in May or June of this year. Net Applications which is another tracker puts Chrome slightly further behind but shows a similar trend.

it's not 23 years its 13 years.

That graph only goes back 13 years but it was 23 years ago IE overtook Netscape. It was 7th of July 1998 to be exact. Here's a post announcing it at the time.

lol shit, how did I subtract that wrong? Anyway it's a hell of a long time in Internet land and the reason this is a big landmark even if it's only for a day.

Even in KWWH's short life it's amazing to see how much Chrome has grown http://www.besthostingforums.com/43-...o-you-use.html
