Browser and Operating Systems Statistics

Posted in Site News at 10:16 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

The month is nearly over and it has been about 6 months since we last revealed some Web site statistics. Here are a few of interest:

Operating Systems

  1. Windows: 51.9 %
  2. Linux: 30.2 %
  3. Unknown: 11 %
  4. Macintosh: 6.4 %
  5. BSD: 0.1 %
  6. Sun Solaris: 0.1 %

Browsers

  1. Firefox: 59.4 %
  2. MS Internet Explorer: 15.9 %
  3. Unknown: 8.2 %
  4. Mozilla: 4.4 %
  5. Opera: 4 %
  6. Safari: 2.7 %

The site now delivers, on average, over 10,000 pages per day and it continues growing in terms of readership as the weeks go by. Mysteriously enough, we do not receive many comments. One explanation might be that some readers prefer to dissociate themselves from the “Boycott Novell” message (the site’s name was Shane’s choice, not mine). Thanks for reading anyway. We are about to hit 2,000 posts in total.

    “Mysteriously enough, we do not receive many comments.”
    Personally, I’m usually too disturbed by the things in the posts that I’m unable to come up with comments.

    Yeah, the site looks a lot more news-oriented than discussion oriented. I suspect why don’t pro-ms trolls even bother to come here? :-)

    But this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. FWIW, I think you’re doing a great job! Keep up with it.

    Thanks, Robert. I’m exceptionally happy to see that people care enough to come here and read what I type down. I do wish there was more discussion though because at the moment there is one about one comment for each 1000 pageviews.
