July 2008 has come to a close, and as always we enjoy taking a look at how the browser and operating system market share changed from the previous month. July was actually a big month for monitoring web browser usage because it’s the first full month that the browsers have had to bake onto the machines of millions and millions of users. Were the new releases a success?
Judging by the stats from Net Applications I would say that they’re not doing quite as well as I expected. In fact the differences from June to July are minimal. What about the operating systems? The OS realm is as slow at changing as it has ever been. Here’s a quick overview of the browser and operating system standings for July 2008:
–Web Browsers–
Firefox was able to gain some ground this month, but it wasn’t at the expense Internet Explorer. It looks like most of the users were making the switch over from Safari, which might mean that dedicated Safari users are finding Firefox 3 to be a more acceptable browser. At this point almost 1/3 of all Firefox users are running Firefox 3, which isn’t bad considering it’s only been out for 6-weeks.
