Is Google’s Chrome browser a good fit for your users? More and more of them think so.
The market share for Internet Explorer (IE) has dipped below 60% for the first time, falling to 59.95%, according to the most recent report by Web analytics company NetApplications.
Chrome’s useage rose to 6.73%, a gain of 0.7% from the last report — about equal to the share lost by IE.
Google’s browser has gotten a fair amount of good press lately on account of its report speed and strong security features.
