NetApplications indicates Chrome is losing ground?

Anonymous — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 05:00:00 GMT

Not that it had much ground to start with, but NetApplications has been tracking Google’s Chrome. From their numbers, though, I don’t see much of a drop-off. Except I do see that Safari gained some ground – which to me indicates that NetApplications isn’t tracking Chrome as well as they could since Chrome is misinterpreted as Safari sometimes, since its built on Safari code.

Here’s what NetApplications had to say in a recent newsletter:

Net Applications Global Internet Usage Market Share is tracking Google Chrome by the hour, as can be seen here: Chrome Marketshare by the Hour

While Chrome got off to an amazing start, reaching over 1% market share within the first 24 hours of its launch, the early adopters are fading. The trend line for Chrome shows it slowly losing market share day by day. Now, only in the middle of the night (for the US) does Chrome peak its above 1%.

Initially, Chrome claimed all of its market share at the expense of Microsoft Internet Explorer. However, as of last week, the Chrome share was coming fairly evenly from all the other major browsers except for Safari But, since Chrome doesn't yet work on Mac OS, that me be the reason why Safari is immune so far.

Google Chrome Released - Live Blog Script

Anonymous — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 05:00:00 GMT

Google Chrome has been announced and will be released at 3pm EST on September 2nd. More details to follow. All times below will be in EST.

2:08pm - Google's shareholder conference about Chrome begins.

2:12pm - Showing how Amazon has changed since 1995. Idea of Chrome came from Google search.

2:13pm - Chrome - the borders of a web browser window, which include the window frames, menus, toolbars and scroll bars.

2:15pm - WebKit will power the core of Google Chrome. Google says if the site will work in Safari, it will work in Chrome.

2:17pm - V8 will power the javascript engine for better performance

2:19pm - Chrome will be released today for PCs; Mac and Linux are in development.

2:20pm - Chrome will be open source available on Google's new Chromium open source web platform.

2:23pm - Ben is demonstrating the sliding tabs in the browser. Tabs can be reordered or moved to another instance of the browser.

2:28pm - Chrome will learn your favorite searches for instance hitting 'A' and 'tab', it will allow you to search amazon.

2:30pm - The 9 most visited sites will be on the main tab page. It will also show your bookmarks, favorite searches, and recently closed tabs.

2:35pm - Option called Create Application Shortcut. This basically creates a shortcut on the desktop that hides all of the toolbars and allows the shortcut to open with no toolbars.

2:38pm - Each process runs independently and allows each tab to render separately.

2:42pm - Each plug-in will be its own process. So, if you are on a page that you need to visit and the plug-in doesn't work, you can kill the plug-in and continue browsing.

2:43pm - Even when a tab is stuck, you can still use Chrome.

2:45pm - CHROME RELEASED - http://www.google.com/chrome/

2:51pm - V8 is being demonstrated in Chrome.

2:57pm - Hearing closing notes about how everyone on the team has used the product.

2:59pm - Google is saying that Mozilla could use V8 to improve their browser.

3:00pm - Questions being asked.

3:01pm - CBS News - tabs are supposed to snap back in to the browser? 3 minute test didn't work.

3:02pm - How does this fit in with Android? Answer: Some features may be shared in the future?

3:03pm - Future plans beyond x86 platform? Answer: end users can compile the browser for other CPUs.

3:04pm - All of Google's changes will be uploaded to WebKit.

3:05pm - Gears will work with HTML 5. Chrome is not the Operating System of web apps. New apps should come out because of enhanced performance of the browser.

3:07pm - Chrome will have an extension API after the initial beta.

3:09pm - Incognito feature does not hinder their advertising space. The incognito window is the tool used to create "web apps" for the desktop.

3:11pm - Chrome binaries are 7MB with all 42 languages bundled.

3:12pm - Google will continue to work and collaborate with Mozilla.

3:16pm - Google Search is still going to work the same and it's not going to tailor the results based on previous searches (Search targeting). Search localization awareness is not currently in Chrome.

3:19pm - Google refused to comment on the Chrome team size. Chrome has been in development for 2 years.

I'm signing off of the Google Chrome Announcement Presentation which can be found at http://google.client.shareholder.com/Visitors/event/build2/MediaPresentation.cfm?MediaID=33101&Player=1. I will be posting more information/reviews about Google Chrome in the upcoming days.

Anonymous — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 05:00:00 GMT

Wow…nobody seems to like Yahoo any longer…

But, the real news is that Microsoft’s pie piece is getting bigger at the expense of both Yahoo and Google.

Look at a recent pie piece…
