13. BlackBerry9700 22 0.02%
14. BlackBerry9000 20 0.01%
15. NetFront 17 0.01%

Comments: According to my website statistics, Internet Explorer market share has dropped. Last year it was at 62.24%, with Firefox at 27.74%. Understandably, browsers like Safari have increased their market share as Macintosh makes more headway, and of course mobile browser usage has become more common.

Versions of Internet Explorer

1. 8.0 6,553 58.84%
2. 7.0 3,035 27.25%
3. 6.0 1,547 13.89%
4. 5.5 1 0.01%

Comments: Gradually we are getting rid of IE6 (THANKFULLY!). Compared to last year's statistics, IE7 54%, IE6 23%, IE8 22%. Now IE8 usage is up to 28% so far in 2010, and IE6 use has dropped by a further 10% or so. That's a very good thing folks :-)

Operating Systems (25 in total)

1. Windows 117,985 88.16%
2. Macintosh 11,854 8.86%
3. Linux 1,649 1.23%
4. iPhone 1,599 1.19%
5. iPod 172 0.13%
6. SymbianOS 169 0.13%

13. Sony 11 0.01%
14. SunOS 11 0.01%
15. Nokia 5 > 0.00%

Comments: Windows has lost slight market share, but the operating system is still dominating - last year showing 90.81% use, and this year 88.16%. Macintosh has improved its market share by about 1.5%.

Versions of Windows Operating Systems

1. XP 71,538 60.63%
2. Vista 27,676 23.46%
3. Windows 7 16,297 13.81%
4. Server 2003 1,860 1.58%
5. 2000 548 0.46%
6. 98 44 0.04%
7. CE 11 0.01%
8. ME 5 > 0.00%
9. NT 3 > 0.00%
10. 95 2 > 0.00%

Comments: Windows XP still dominates, with only a 3% drop in Vista use. I'm a little shocked to be honest because having used all three operating systems, XP is good, Vista is RUBBISH (think coffee coaster is only use for disc), and Windows 7 is FANTASTIC! If you are in business and you're still using XP, I highly recommend you go to Windows 7. But take the opportunity to replace your hard drive(s) and do a full install - don't upgrade.

Versions of Macintosh Operating Systems

1. Intel 10.5 4,920 41.50%
2. Intel 10.6 4,798 40.48%
3. Intel 10.4 960 8.10%
4. PPC 10.4 521 4.40%
5. PPC 10.5 312 2.63%
6. Intel 190 1.60%
7. PPC 152 1.28%
8. PPC 1 0.01%

Comments: It seems to me that Mac owners are more proactive when it comes to upgrading their operating systems. 2009 showed 10.5 at 57.58% and 10.4 at 11.88%. This year, we have the emergence of 10.6 at 40.48%, 10.5 and 10.4 has dropped, and PPC has almost disappeared.

25. 1093x614 206 0.15%

Comments: Last year there were 632 different screen resolutions, compared to this year (so far) at 693. That's one hell of a lot of different screen sizes! When you come across websites which still say "this website was designed for (insert size) screen resolution", please tell the owner to redesign their website!

Java support

1. Yes 118,972 88.89%
2. No 14,863 11.11%

Comments: Java support has dropped from last year. This includes Java AND JavaScript (two different things), so it is more likely that support for Java has dropped, especially considering the prevalence of JavaScript reliant coding such as jQuery.

Connection Speeds

1. Unknown 46,797
2. DSL 41,316
3. Cable 29,639
4. T1 12,395
5. Dialup 2,982
6. OC3 615
7. ISDN 91

Comments: Broadband use has increased dramatically, both in ADSL and cable formats.

Top Networks (11,346 in total)

1. Telstra Internet 24,330
2. Optus Internet - retail 9,662
3. iinet limited 7,738
4. TPG Internet pty ltd. 6,570
5. Internet Service Provider 3,441
6. 3g Mobile Service Provider 2,271
7. Comcast Cable Communications inc. 1,641
8. Road Runner Holdco llc 1,592
9. Adam Internet pty ltd 1,512
10. Primus Telecommunications 1,468

Comments: BigPond (Telstra) still dominates the market - at least here in Australia. The order of ISPs hasn't changed that much from last year - still Telstra, Optus, iiNet and TPG in the first four positions.

Top Search Engines (20 in total)

1. Google 102,051
2. Bing 8,324
3. Yahoo 2,842
4. Search 959
5. Ask 694
6. AOL 195
7. Netscape 130
8. images.google 45
9. Yandex 38
10. Alta Vista 35

Comment: Again, not much has changed here. Google still obliterates the opposition, and will still do so when Bing and Yahoo! combine for search. Having said that, Bing use is still about 300% higher than Yahoo already. But don't forget, these are justweb^® stats - this could simply mean Bing likes my website better than Yahoo! does :-)
