In summary, since IE9 has been released we’re seeing a significant dip in IE7 and IE6 users, which is excellent! IE8 is staying at a steady 17.3% and IE9 users are slowly coming into existence. We’re seeing a slight decrease of Firefox users by 1% and a 2% jump in Chrome users. Safari, and Opera are at their usual steady 2-3 percentages (yet we’re actually seeing a very slight, gradual increase in Safari’s popularity, jumping up .1-.2% each month).
