Web statistics

I found an article on w3schools.com that surprised me quite a bit. The site has gathered information about the settings that their readers use, and presented the numbers in tables.

Screen resolution:
According to their numbers of July 2004 only 10% of the computers had a screen resolution higher than 1024×768, and 50% (increasing) of the computers were using 1024×768. The surpricing part was that as much as 35%(decreasing) were still using the 800×600 resolution!

Div statistics
90% of the computers had JavaScript enabled in July 2004 (about the same as in July 2003).

In September 2004 IE 6 was used by 69.6% of the users which is the same as in 2003, but Mozilla has during the last year increased from 6.2% to 16.9%. O 7 has increased slightly, but the rest are decreasing.

The number of users of Windows XP is now at 55.9% and increasing, while the older Windows versions are decreasing. Linux and Mac has increased by 0.6-0.7%.

(W3schools has used their web page and some other sites to gather the data for these statistics.)

The Real Cost when MicroSoft says free

This is what you get when MicroSoft says free. Apparently they refuse to release new features to Internet Explorer not on Windows XP SP2. Tight OS integration is lovely isn’t it? 😛 Forget about Internet Explorer. Get FireFox instead.
