redletterdave ([email protected]) writes with news that Google Chrome is in the process of surpassing Firefox to become the second most popular web browser (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204012004577071933883857786.html). Pinpointing the exact time of the change is difficult, of course, since different analytics firms collect slightly different data. The current crop of media reports were triggered by data from StatCounter (http://gs.statcounter.com/), which shows Chrome at 25.69% and Firefox at 25.23% for November. Data from Net Applications (http://www.netmarketshare.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qprid=1&qpcustomb=0) shows Firefox still holding a 4% lead, but the trends suggest it will evaporate within a few months (http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-57334418-264/chrome-usage-within-striking-distance-of-firefox/).
