Stepping away from our ranting about the crazy theistic masses and how Christianity|Islam|Judaism is the source of all evil, I have noticed an interesting tren. This year, there have been more visitors to this site who use a Mac (3.5%), then visitors who use Linux (1.1%). Shocking. Sadly, Microsoft are still head and shoulders in the lead (86.4%). Even more strange, there are more visitors who use Internet Explorer 5.0 than there are Linux users in total (1.5% vs 1.1%). Amazing. All I can say is, if you are here using Netscape Navigator (3.0%) or IE older than version 6 (an amazing 8%) then you REALLY should think about an upgrade…
It’s /very/ site dependent. One of my sites has 44% for Linux (~20,000 visits/month) because it discusses Open Source.
and it is an excellent site. 🙂
Last year the figures were around 5% Linux vs less than 1% on Macs – and this was pretty much consistent each month. Generally the content here hasn’t changed much so I wonder if it is just an indicator that Macs are gaining more ground?
The visitors using IE 2 (0.1%) are really baffling.
(Although, now I have done a quick look over there are less Linux related articles this year so that may have contributed more than any market trend. Oh well)
