Are You Tired Of Browser Wars?

Browser Wars - Actual Browser Share by www.istudioweb.comIf you answered “yes” to the question in the title – I don’t believe you. Everyone likes controversial topics to fight on. So here’s my blow to those who think Firefox will rule the world.

If you click on the image to the left you will see the two graphs. They are the same, I just made them into two different pictures so it would be easier to view. These are browser shares (in per cent) from actual visits to one of our clients’ web site. Data has been taken from Awstats screen, pasted into Excel which provided us with these neat browser share charts. The web site itself is positioned on top of the first page in all main search engines, it’s pretty much a leader in it’s niche, thanks to the efforts of our web design studio.

Oh, no! He gave away the best-kept secret!

In the recent article Wired tells about the artist and Rutgers professor Hasan Elahi, who was mistakenly targeted by FBI as a suspected terrorist. Yep, he’s the one who decided to put all his life out there in the open to make sure authorities know he’s innocent. “I’ve discovered that the best way to protect your privacy is to give it away” – damn, now every paranoid would set up his lifeblog online. Hear me, good people of Internet – next thing you know would be some smart ass sending out bulk spam with his/her daily activities.

Zango Time!

Out of all the latest lawsuits this one is particularly hilarious. Here’s the quote:

Online media company’ Zango, which gained notoriety for redirecting adult affiliate traffic and the first ever MySpace worm, is now suing the anti-spyware vendor PC Tools, maker of an application called ‘Spyware Doctor’, for removing Zango applications off the consumers’ PCs.

As some sharp Slashdot reader pointed out: “This is like Osama Bin Laden filing a federal lawsuit in Washington D.C. alleging that George W. Bush is interfering with Bin Laden’s rights to advance the agenda of fundamentalist Islam and kill innocent Americans.

By the way, if Zango decided that they need to clean up their image (for real), maybe they should have started with removing self-installing spyware first?
