Google Chrome fails to shine
Market share halves since launch

Google's Chrome browser was
launched
last month in a blaze of publicity, but seems to have attracted little
support.
Web analytics firm GetClicky reported that Chrome rapidly picked up three per
cent of browser views in the week following its launch, but that usage is now
down to half that figure.
Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox both saw use fall in the
first week after Chrome's launch, but this proved short-lived. The two browsers
now have market share of around 60 per cent and 30 per cent respectively.
Apple's Safari currently has around five per cent of the market, and Opera
has 1.5 per cent, according to GetClicky.
The figures are backed up by
vnunet.com's
own
research, and suggest that Google has a long way to go before it can take on
IE and Firefox, even with help from
promised
versions built for Apple and Linux users.
