POLL: What web browser are you using right now?

My Ratings

1) Firefox (*****)

Any browser that was to successfully challenge IE6’s market dominance would have to be far and away the best browser on offer. Netscape 6 was decent, but didn’t cut it. The Mozilla suite, on which Navigator 6 was based, is excellent but aimed at developers and unwieldy for most user’s needs. The web needed a browser that was fast, lightweight, and did everything IE does, but better. That browser is Firefox.

Firefox Market share Total=14.36 %

2) Internet Explorer 7 (****1/2)

After a long hiatus after Internet Explorer 6 was released, Microsoft finally got shunted out of complacence in the browser market by the threat posed by new upstart browsers like Firefox and Safari. IE7 is a great improvement over its predecessor, with much improved standards support. It has also caught up on the other browsers in terms of features like tabbed browsing and intelligent popup blocking. Firefox is still my favourite browser, but IE7 ain’t half bad.

In Genral IE is MOST POPULAR

Market Share for July, 2007

IE4 - 0.01%

IE5 - 0.20%

IE5.5 - 0.19%

IE6 - 45.24%

IE7 - 33.15%

3)Opera(***1/2)

Opera Software’s browser is a really good piece of work. Billing itself as “The fastest browser on Earth!”, it is a free browser with excellent standards support.

Opera's overall global share of the browser market as being between 0.5% and 1.0%, although Opera's usage share is over 12% in Ukraine, over 9% in Russia, and over 6% in Poland and Lithuania.

Two very helpful features are the page-zoom featurethe developer shortcuts to turn off stylesheets and images.The amount of ideas and helpful features that they’ve managed to cram into opera is really something else.

4)Safari(***1/2)

Safari is Apple’s own web browser, and for its first few years was only available to lucky Mac owners, coming pre-installed on all new Macs since 2003. A Windows version was released in June 2007. Fast web browsing one of its feature.

It also has the best RSS-reading feature available to date, which makes keeping track of a number of websites much easier than using bookmarks.

NetApplications.com reports that Safari has a usage share of 4.59% as of April 2007,an increase of 1.33 percentage points since May 2006.

Hope This helps

Cheers:)
