Gecko beats IE!
17th June 2003
I haven’t looked at the statistics for this site in a few months. It turns out I was in for a pleasant surprise:
| Browser | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Netscape 5.x | 44.02% |
| MSIE 6.0 | 27.29% |
| Feedreader | 6.76% |
| NetNewsWire/1.0.3 | 3.74% |
| Internet Explorer 5.5x | 3.69% |
| Internet Explorer 5.x | 3.63% |
| SharpReader/0.9.0.2 | 3.34% |
| NewsGator/1.2 | 2.60% |
| SharpReader/0.9.0.3 | 2.56% |
| NetNewsWire/1.0.2 | 2.37% |
Yup, Gecko engine based browsers appear to be more common than Internet Explorer, at least for this small corner of the web.
