Net Applications MarketShare Shows Google Chrome Losing its Shine
Net Applications Global Internet Usage Market Share is tracking Google Chrome by the hour, as can be seen here: Chrome Marketshare by the Hour While Chrome got off to an amazing start, reaching over 1% market share within the first 24 hours of its launch, the early adopters are fading. The trend line for Chrome shows it slowly losing market share day by day. Now, only in the middle of the night (for the US) does Chrome peak its above 1%. Initially, Chrome claimed all of its market share at the expense of Microsoft Internet Explorer. However, as of last week, the Chrome share was coming fairly evenly from all the other major browsers except for Safari But, since Chrome doesn't yet work on Mac OS, that me be the reason why Safari is immune so far. Weekly market share numbers: | Week of: | Aug 24 | Aug 31 | Sep 7 | Net Change | | IE | 72.39% | 71.03% | 71.24% | (1.15%) | | Firefox | 19.54% | 19.78% | 19.35% | (0.19%) | | Safari | 6.27% | 6.67% | 6.95% | 0.68% | | Chrome | ----- | 0.67% | 0.85% | 0.85% | | Opera | 0.74% | 0.75% | 0.70% | (0.04%) | | Netscape | 0.77% | 0.83% | 0.67% | (0.10%) | For these and other Global Market Share Statistics, go to marketshare.hitslink.com.
