Chrome: Already Topping Opera in Market Share

by Sam Dean - Sep. 05, 2008Comments (2)

There have been positive and negative things said about Google's new Chrome open source browser but, just as Apple can do no wrong in the eyes of many consumers, never underestimate the sway that Google has. PC Magazine is reporting that Chrome already tops Opera in market share after just four days in the wild, citing data from Net Applications. Meanwhile, our sister blog JKOntheRun ran a quick analysis of which browsers were accessing their site on the first day of Chrome's release and found that more than 10 percent of visitors were using Chrome. Go figure. Check out JKOntheRun's thoughts.

Well, that's just the beginning. I expect Google to announce supporting OLPC by pre-installing Chrome on the laptops as soon as Chrome's available for Linux. Wimax support would be also welcome.
