It's great to see (from the peaks in usage of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera on weekends) that people are choosing more progressive browsers over IE for home use. It'd also be neat to see the breakdown of IE versions in this data too. Microsoft sure do have their work cut out for them!

You could interpolate from the chart that shows distribution by browser versions up to February 2012. Chrome's auto-update feature is staggeringly efficient. IE 8.0 18.86 IE 9.0 12.08 IE 7.0 3.32 IE 6.0 1.48 Chrome 16.0 13.39 Chrome 15.0 0.35 Chrome 14.0 0.35 Chrome 12.0 0.27 Chrome 13.0 0.25 EDIT: removed the Firefox and "Other" numbers as their sum is nowhere close to the aggregated numbers in the browser monthly charts [2]. StatCounter must be counting recent versions of Chrome and Firefox as "Other" in data set [1].

No, people are choosing Chrome over IE for home use. The trend is clear; Chrome is likely to achieve a crushingly dominant market share in a couple of years, or sooner.

  Yes, the trend you're referring to (Chrome becoming dominant) is clear, but it's the other pattern (the weekly cycles of troughs for IE, and the coinciding peaks for all other browsers) that I was referring to.

  > The trend is clear; Chrome is likely to achieve a crushingly dominant market share in a couple of years Assuming the trend will continue until Chrome becomes dominant. Firefox's didn't.
