It's not surprising at all. I'm surprised MSFT hasn't been sued under a Products Liability claim.

My Grandma uses Firefox!

BradM 01-21-2005 07:00 PM

Most firefox users are educated webmasters, or surfers who know what they are doing. Hence would never buy porn. ;)

I actually develop on Firefox these days and open IE once every few hours to check it there. Who thought this day would come :thumbsup

Vitasoy 01-21-2005 08:41 PM

The newbies will always use IE :-)

Furious_Female 01-22-2005 02:19 PM

I <3 Ie!! :)

Zebra 01-22-2005 02:44 PM

When I first got into adult in '96 Netscape had around a 90% share and IE had under 10%. Within a few years the numbers had changed. Will be interesting to see if another change that big happens again.

slapass 01-22-2005 02:45 PM

Yep keep telling yourselves that no one will switch. Netscape used to be the norm and Altavista was the main search portal but the web is pretty much locked in now.

:winkwink:

Spunky 01-22-2005 02:46 PM

I'm glad I use firefox now.The spyware has been reduced 10 fold

Manowar 01-22-2005 02:49 PM

When you're doing design work, some ECMAscripting works on standards-compliant browsers (like firefox) that doesn't work on MSIE. Whenver I do devel like that, I work mostly on firefox or mozilla and then 'adjust' to compensate for MSIE's quirks. The problem is that a lot of people design for MSIE only, making their sites look like shit to a significant (and growing) browser market when they use MSIE-only bogosities.

It's always a good idea to regression-test your code and sites against other browsers. If it increases your exposure and profit potential and costs little in labour, why not do it?

flashfire 01-22-2005 04:14 PM

I'm not surprised, firefox is way better

fünkmaster 01-22-2005 04:14 PM

"Apple Computer Inc.'s Safari browser, showed a gain of almost a full percentage point."

... so, the safari browser gained 1% and AAPL went up 300% ... what will happen if the safari browser will gain another 5% ??

... isn't it amazing how blind people are, apple offers probably the best and savest investment opportunity since the dot bomb crash and people still talk the "my browser is better than yours" bullshit. who gives a fuck ??

... you all better go and talk to your stock broker on monday, opportunities like this one don't come too often.
