You see? That's why IE features are always "broken" and half-implemented. If HTML etc. worked as defined in IE, people could abandon IE at will.
If IE worked fine people will abandon it? I think it's backwards.
And remember we are not talking only about implementing web standards, but also security issues, stability and velocity.
It's becoming less and less significant as OS X (which comes with Safari by default) and Firefox gain marketshare
I think Chrome will eat more IE market share than Firefox and Safari in the following years, mostly because Google's massive advertisement capacity.
- intranation 17y agoI think Chrome will eat more IE market share than Firefox and Safari in the following years, mostly because Google's massive advertisement capacity. More likely because Google is big and ubiquitous, and people trust them. "Oh look, Google does one of those browser things, and they tell me it's fast. I wonder what happens if I download it..."
- aphyr 17y agoI don't believe it's primarily about advertising. Chrome startup on my Ubuntu and Windows boxes is an order of magnitude faster than Firefox, and significantly faster than IE. I can open a Chrome window and navigate through two pages before FF even opens--even if I started FF first. That's a tremendous incentive to switch, even if Youtube videos are broken sometimes. :) I haven't looked back.
