Browser & OS Stats for April 2009: Windows Losing Share

The last time we did a report on the operating system and browser stats was back in January 2009. In January Chrome was starting to take off as it passed 1% market share, and both Windows and Internet Explorer suffered some big blows as their competition scooped up some of their precious users.

Propeller 2.0 “Props” Stories to the Top

Back last September, Netscape announced they were calling it quits with their "Digg-Clone" social media site and instead were starting something new called Propeller.

April Browser Stats were Incorrect

Last week we took a look at where the various browsers stood up against each other in terms of market share. I was shocked (to say the least) when Internet Explorer triumphantly came out on top with a 1.22% market share increase. That really hit hard for Firefox who's market share was sent spiraling down to 16.96%, which was nearly a percent lower than the previous month.

We realized that we've never really done an article diving deep into the history of browser stats even though we have shown you screenshots of browsers from long ago.

Netscape Navigator Kicks the Can

I wish I could say that I'm surprised, but AOL has decided to kick the can on further Netscape Navigator developments. The Netscape team will publish security updates for one more month (until February 1, 2008), and after that Netscape Navigator will just be a memory. Here's what the Netscape blog had to say:

CyberNotes: History of Web Browsers – Opera, Netscape, Firefox, and IE

Have you ever wondered how browsers have evolved over time? I'm sure many of you can recall using early versions of Netscape as they were pushed out the door, but some of the new features and interface designs have happened so slowly that it may be hard to appreciate the browsers we currently have.

Netscape Moves "Digg-Clone" to Propeller.com

Last week, Netscape posted an announcement that they were calling it quits with their "Digg-Clone" social media site. They said that after a study, they found that people didn't associate the Netscape brand with socially controlled news, therefore they were moving on. They also promised though, that their social news site would be around, just not at the Netscape.com domain.

Netscape’s "Digg-Clone" Calling it Quits

Some of you probably remember the controversy that came last Summer when Netscape launched a social news service which they hoped would compete with Digg.  They even went as far as "bribing" some of the top Digg and Reddit users at the time with $1,000 per month to come over to Netsca [...]
