Integers? Whole Numbers? Decimal? Float?....What kind of numbers are we talking here?

That's the latest one.
Aren't they going a bit too far with the nagging? Doesn't everybody already use it?

Are you talking about Google search results? Looks more or less the same for me on FireFox.

The messages that the keep popping up
Make us your home page! (even when it already is)
Install Chrome! (already got it, I do have to test on other browsers)
Check your security settings!
Log on to Chrome!
Let us track your every move! You'll love it!
Get Google for your mobile!
The title is a new one I noticed a moment ago.

Nope. Not even close (EU, please note!) Running at about 25% market share at the moment, well behind both MS's various offerings and oddments various (though thrashing Firefox!)

Where did anyone suggest limiting things to the desktop?
|
|
|
|

Well, equally where did anyone suggest limiting it to only the 5 most used? Point is that it's not everyone that uses Chrome and by a long way so.

IE doesn't count. It's the default browser on Windows, people just use it.
It's also forced down our throats in corporate environments. Those users have no choice, Google could pop up ads until hell freezes over (or heaven vaporizes, depending on what you believe about global warming) without making any difference.

I tried to check but it wanted me to pay for the honor.

It's not about desktop, it's about measuring strategy. The article linked explains it. But let me demonstrate with a simple example:
Alice opens codeproject.com in IE
Bob opens codeproject.com in IE
Charlie opens codeproject.com in Chrome, then opens 3 other websites with the same.
Net Market Share will report 66% IE, because 66% of people use that browser. Most other sites will report 33%, because across all those websites 2 out of 6 requests came from Chrome. That's why you can end up with wildly differing numbers.

Yeah, I get it but it's irrelevant to this discussion.
Someone quoted a statistic about browser usage that (to me) looked very wrong. The data he provided was for desktop usage only. All I'm saying is that it would be nice to see the expanded data from the same source that includes mobile devices as well.
Kapeesh?

The statistics you linked as a reply to a statement about Chrome not being dominant at all, without context, seemed to imply differently. I've just pointed out (replying to that post) that the previous statement was correct, still more people use IE than Chrome.
