Just goes to show that the tech savvy prefer Firefox over anything else. But what interests me most is that safari has a sizeable lead over Opera. The Wordpress.org stats are interesting.

I too was surprised at the slow take up of IE7. Of all Internet Explorer visitors to my site it is roughly a 50/50 split between IE6 and IE7. It just goes to show you cannot assume everyone runs the latest software, and it pays to make sure your web site displays well on as many different browser versions as possible. Have a delve into your Google Analytics stats. I think you'll be surprised at what people use. I'd be interested in seeing your results.

That would be an interesting pie chart too. One thing it isn’t indicative of is the blogging tools that people are using – considering it’s all done with Wordpress.
