Firefox use growing

I'm a big fan of Firefox, been using it since....since....hmmm i can't seem to remember, I can only say I was introduced to Firefox by Tay, the gadget fellow...so its good news that Firefox use growing around the world, and here's a snippet of the news from computerworld.

----------------------
After a brief period of little growth this spring, The Mozilla Foundation's open-source Firefox Web browser is again gaining ground on Microsoft Corp.'s Internet Explorer (IE).

In its latest study on Web browser usage, Netherlands-based OneStat.com said Sunday that Firefox gained 1.14% in June and is now used by 12.93% of surfers. That's up from 11.79% who used Firefox in May, while IE use declined by 2.12% to 83.05%.

"We thought that Firefox growth had slowed down," said Niels Brinkman, a co-founder of OneStat.com. "It seems it's increasing again. That's a little bit of a surprise to us."
