As many of you know, Firefox 4 just crossed the 100,000,000 download mark. I thought this would be a nice time to re-visit the Firefox 4 vs Internet Explorer 9 early usage share numbers.
As you can see, Firefox 4 is already well above the 8% mark while IE 9, is right around 3%. (I'm sure you can also see the point in the graph where Microsoft started enabling Windows Updates for IE 9)
If all goes according to plan, we'll be letting Firefox 3.5 and 3.6 users know about Firefox 4 with that "advertised" or "prompted" update in about 10 days. I'll bet we see a nice uptick in the Firefox 4 trend when we actually start to communicate its availability to users of older Firefox versions.
