The lack of a certain piece of software, software which has caused countless hours of headache and lost productivity for web developers everywhere, is enough to affect my mood. Positively :)
I honestly think that should be the headline of the post since I find that a lot more interesting. I've had the feeling for some time that the early adopter market is shifting from Firefox to Chrome and this provides some anecdotal evidence for that conclusion.
Same here. I almost gave up on Firefox and went back to IE. I downloaded Chrome the day it was first released and have used it ever since. Chrome had some nasty bugs and shortcomings early on, and I almost gave up on it, too, but subsequent versions have kept me (mostly) satisfied.
What do you mean? Chrome is rapidly eating through Firefox's user base. Especially on more tech-savvy sites, it's not uncommon to see Chrome start overtaking every other browser (I think TechCrunch or a similar site released their August browser share stats, with Chrome just about to lap Firefox).
What is the point of this post? The numbers don't add up to 100%, and the statement is incorrect if IE got cut off in the lower rank. Looks like people are just up-voting this post because it says "no IE".
Recently, I've been trying to use IE9 beta for my daily use. I rarely see difference or annoyance from chrome. Only thing I would like IE9 to have is...bookmark sync, which is only thing preventing me from using IE9 permanently.
I don't understand the idea of "trying to use" another browser. Why not just use one that works for you? Is there something else compelling in IE9 that makes you want to switch?
Just experimenting. All because people nowadays are bashing on products and services without any clear reason IMHO. Plus, I like to judge on products by myself before I bash on something :)
Don't get me wrong. Chrome works well for me..except the frequent crashes on some foreign sites that use flash intensively. I could be issues in Flash, Chrome, or both. IE9 hasn't crashed..YET.
I remember seeing charts like that when Reddit started... just you wait until reddit fucks something up like reddit and HN turns to poop too from the internet newbies that will flood it.

Do you know how much of that is IE? Is it really so little that it didn't make the top 10-list?
