In an event which can only be described as a long time coming, increased exposure for Mozilla’s Firefox has finally driven it to exceed that of Internet Explorer 6, the decrepit hunk of code venerable old browser released all the way back in 2001.
While IE’s overall market share still hangs around 62%, the portion of that belonging to the reviled IE6 shrunk to (a still abhorrently high) 23.30%. Combining versions 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5 for Firefox yielded a total presence of 23.83%.
Frankly, we don’t care what you switch to–Firefox, IE8, Safari 4, even Opera–but for heaven’s sake, get off of IE6 already. We’re talking to you, too, IT bean counters!
