Happy 2013! The Winners and Losers of Browsers

My first post in 2013! Web developers' number one concern is always the browser popularity. We simply cannot afford to develop a web page that only runs well on a browser that is seldom used by the public.

Here's the latest stat from WikiMedia as of October 2012 for non-mobile browser:



The winner is Google for 2012!!!

As for the mobile version, my guess is either Google or Apple. I think they are in stiff competition something like 50/50. But for America, I think Apple Safari won the competition where iPad and iPhone are very popular. As for the rest of the world, Google has the edge.

Let see how this competition turns out later part of 2013.

Have a enjoyable 2013! Happy coding!
