Internet Explorer's share of web traffic drops below 50%

Microsoft's Browser "Internet Explorer" Can no longer claim more than half of the web’s traffic, as of October, ending more than a decade of the default Microsoft browser’s reign.


Internet Explorer Still the world's Most used Browser with A Share of "52.2%" .Thanks To all Windows Machines out There which Still Made IE Alive as its a Default Browser on World's most Used Operating System(91.9%) .
As of October, FireFox is the second most popular web browser, accounting for 21.20% of traffic, followed by Google Chrome and Safari, which account for 16.60% and 8.72% respectively.


FireFox is Crawling up the Charts with its Likely Features,easy interface and handful of Addons often Regarded as Best Choice Of Programmers,Professionals.



Chrome, which recently celebrated its third birthday, experienced the most expansion in October, increasing its share of the desktop market 1.42%. Google Chrome is Known For its Speed and User Friendly Interface.


Safari, the default browser in Apple’s iPhone and iPad, continues to increase its dominance over the mobile web, gaining 6.58% of the market. Safari’s share is increasing faster than the iPhone’s, probably due to how much mobile traffic is now driven by iPads.


I came across this comparison chart On Netmarketshare.com today that reminded me of the early days of the browser wars between Microsoft and everyone else. In Early Days when Internet Boomed "IE" Rocked The Browsers Market, also Windows used to be Only operating  System Default on Most Of Computers Adding to This fail of Mozaic gave IE Boost Which made it the Top Browser .


Microsoft has a long and sordid history of being unwilling to comply with standards that the rest of the world readily adopts.


Internet Explorer (IE) is universally accepted as the most difficult browser to work with when developing web applications, regardless of which version is currently out. They were able to get away with this in the past because they owned the market. Today that is simply not true, and yet you would never know it.


Even in 2011 Internet Explorer continues to suck outright in terms of compliance with HTML/CSS standards. Internet Explorer’s market share has dropped precipitously since 2003-2004, when it commanded over 75% market share.With all of the Windows machines out there, Internet Explorer has but 52% of the market of the Market Share.


Internet Explorer is dying. It can’t happen soon enough.IE Failed To Compete with New Age Browsers. If Microsoft Failed To Realise the fast ,Soon IE May Become Extinct ,like Mozaic.
