This is my first post on Hot Indian Trends. Wanted to start this blog by giving some analysis on web browsers. I like to use different browsers for different needs and web browser is the basic thing required on a PC these days.
Well, if we see the usage of different web browsers IE still leads in the usage but, its decreasing gradually and giving way for firefox. There is a big movement going on in internet circles about stopping the usage of ie6.
If we take the keywords (Firefox, IE, Chrome, Safari, Opera) which are searched or downloaded most on internet Firefox leads. Firefox is going to pickup in few years and has to overtake IE. There is a campaign going on to spread the word of Firefox and Firefox has already celebrated 1 Billion downloads.
If you would like to participate in Firefox Projects do so. Here is the link. I have already registered.
This April Google Chrome overtook Internet Explorer in terms of keyword searched for. Opera and Safari are still picking up.
As PC sales zoom and internet is picking up in India most PC's still come with IE as the default browser. We might see the same trend or a decrease in trend continuing for IE in future as well. Firefox will keep its uptrend continuing and may leave a long gap behind for others to catch on. By the way, IE is the most preferred browser in the corporate world government sectors. That will keep IE floating for a while.
Google Chrome might pickup late next year as they introduce more features and addons. There were some exceptions noticed. States of Assam and Goa have the most usage of Firefox and Chrome.
