It may not really be a representative sample when looking at the browser ratio that visits this blog, but it appears that the browser war isn't quite over yet and there are more browser types out there than we are made believe. While
Netscape seems to have lost pretty much all of its users (I mean, they were
the browser, back in the mid 90s) to
Internet Explorer, which holds the lion share at the moment,
Firefox is apparently turning the tables right now. Heck, I've been using the Mozilla browser since it started, and now with the possibility to plug in an
IE rendering engine into Firefox for those sites that the
Gecko engine doesn't quite like, I've been IE-free for quite some time. Since Firefox version 1.5, the annoying memory leaks have also disappeared, at least for now. Nice work,
guys.
