Think its nice for netbook in terms of browsing. Downloading and streaming are other issues. It sucks in those fields. I use Google Chrome since it provides a bigger viewing screen for my msi wind.

I'm sure you have internal stats as well. @eizan - saw that earlier but forgot to edit. thanks for reminding. @orak, I use 3 or 4 kinds of analytics tools all at the same time. @ed - figures are for entire Philippine users, not YugaTech. @Gen – don’t know of any other local study/survey this focused.

I think it's time to upgrade your a web analytics. I would recommend the services of Clicky: http://www.getclicky.com Clicky is a Web Analytics service that provides real time stats monitoring and tracking along with a ton of useful features and a pretty decent interface. There are some tweaks I'd like to see to the look when monitoring multiple sites under one account, but other than that, after a few days of use, I'm pleasantly surprised with the speed and features of the service. yo yuga!

Honestly, these open source browsers are far better than IE but since in every brand new PC IE is default people tends to stick with it. I think it's better if other browsers will be included on every brand new PC.

Since it is included on the browser category, so i think, the globalstat found it as different browser. I wonder if Media Player really uses the IE in its online browsing.

But I wonder if this is because Filipinos are aware of Firefox or simply because internet cafe installed Firefox as default browser. I still see a lot using IE, especially for non-tech people.

Is there any other service that is tracking browser share in the Philippines that you know of? In the US we use NetRatings, in the EU we use XitiMonitor, in Thailand- truehits.net, etc. If you know of any local statistics from Filipino sites looking at browser share, that'd be interesting to compare to this data set. Abe, great post.

Of course, I could be wrong. ;) I think Media Player was counted because most of PCs, especially neighborhood internet cafes in the country has Media Player as the default media player, and once this fired up, it goes online to connect to online stores.
