  2. Comment - Award Claim Sparks Firefox, Opera Clash

    (Jun 10, 2005 - 6:30 PM)

    After using just about every single browser for Windows there is I have arrived at this very simple conclusion. Each broswer brings with it a very unique toolset or set of functions which can be considered a pro or a con. ALL browsers have some sort of security issue/s to deal with. It all depends on what the 'end-user' is looking for. I myself used IE and Netscape for years... Now I am using Firefox & Opera. I Keep IE around so I can download templates, updates and whatnot from Microsoft's website.

    Opera v/s Firefox...
    As far as whose better, take a look at the numbers:
    IE:
    Jan 2005 - 69.7%
    Jun 2005 - 63.5% (-) decrease

    Firefox:
    Jan 2005 - 19.3%
    Jun 2005 - 26.3% (+) increase

    Opera:
    Jan 2005 - 2.1%
    Jun 2005 - 1.8% (-) decrease

    Those numbers don't lie. If you want to see for yourself check them out at: www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
    Other sites show different stats but you can still see the same thing among them all. IE is slipping when it comes to dominance. After all is said and done these browser wars fuel improvements among all browsers... So whichever you use be proud knowing your a part of the fight... lol
