"Chrome's usage share for January has made it into double
digits: the browser was used by 10.7 percent of Web users last
month, up from 9.98 percent in December. It was a good month too
for Safari, up to 6.30 percent from 5.89 percent the month
before.
"The WebKit-powered browsers were the big winners: Microsoft's
Internet Explorer was the big loser. Internet Explorer reached a
new all-time low of 56 percent, down 1.08 percentage points from
last month. Though Internet Explorer 8 continues to perform
well—up 1.15 points from December—defections from
Internet Explorer 6 and 7 to other browsers continue to dominate,
with those versions losing 1.63 and 0.47 points respectively. The
beta of Internet Explorer 9 made minor gains, rising to 0.50
percent share.
"Firefox continues to hover between 22 and 23 points; its
January share was 22.75 percent, erasing the small gains it made in
December. Opera made small gains, up to 2.28 from 2.20 percent a
month ago."
