| Web analytics firms kick off New Year with more suspicious statistics Look, all tech reporters love data. It's the raw material we spin into articles. But it's become painfully clear in recent months that the numbers we are fed each month are horribly flawed, and the problem is getting worse. If the companies involved won't stop publishing this silly data, maybe it's time for the tech press to stop playing along and retire those monthly reports. http://www.zdnet.com/article/more-we...tag=RSSbaffb68

It took 2 years for Chrome and FF to change places, CHrome 1/3 of the pie, and FF the other 1/3, in 2012 IE usage dropped to 16% and Safari up to 5.46% Last year we saw Chrome closing in on 50%, Firefox at only 25% , IE trailing at 12.6% and Safari has almost doubled in usage since 2010, now at 6.7% December 2014 ------------- Chrome 47.9% Firefox 26.3% IE 12.6% Safari 6.7% December 2013 ------------ Chrome 43.18% Firefox 27.45% IE 10.17% Safari 7.44% December 2012 ------------ Chrome 37.08% Firefox 33.01% IE 16.73% Safari 5.46% December 2011 ------------ Firefox 42.69% Chrome 25.36% IE 19.45% Safari 4.32% December 2010 ------------ Firefox 46.03% IE 24.16% Chrome 19.15% Safari 3.63%
