Firefox has 100% market share on one continent!

Yes, Firefox now has 100% of the browser market in at least two places: one, my house. Two, Antarctica. While neither of those stats is particularly impressive, you've got to start somewhere, right, Mozilla?
And it's not like Microsoft or Apple can claim the same thing - Antarctica is pretty much the only continent on Earth where a browser would even have a fighting chance to claim 100% of the market.
We can only wait patiently for the gang at Mozilla start producing t-shirts that proudly proclaim "One down, six to go."
edit: the graph above presents one additional point of discussion. Will a browser someday claim 110% of the market? Graphs don't lie!

Believe it or not, Atari have just released a bunch of old games on their own website. These aren't clones, these aren't even 'loving interpretations' -- these are the real thing, remade by Atari themselves. This comes as part of a re-launch for the Atari website which includes an online store.
I warn you, if you read on, this might turn into more than just a mere ten-minute time-waster.

Just wait until there's an Apple Store down there.

Yeah. Those 17" MBPs need the subzero temperatures in order to not fail...

The reason the graph goes to 110% is because of the graph only went to 100% then Mozilla's share would read "off the chart" and you wouldn't know if their share stopped at 100% or went higher. Obviously, because we are talking about market share, it could never be over 100%, but from a graphing purist's perspective, there should always be extra space between the end of the visible axes and the highest amount.

Excellent. I must use this as a case-study in our downloadable management-training program and workshop sessions www.mcafeematrix.com . It's a superb example of over-reliance on stats. Are you ok with me using it? No problem, if not. Thanks for a laugh anyhow.

The shirt you mention just begs to be created. I'd buy one (maybe).

But a 100% market share is not something very positive. Monopoly has never been a good thing. Just look at internet explorer.
It's fun though :)

I'm not a computer geek but I am amazed at firefox's extenions. I love stumbleupon , interclue, morning coffee, fasterfox and many more. Firefox 3 is supposed to be the most secure browser of them all; especially for the little talked about 'drive bye' virus trojan attacks. Much more secure than IE-7. Can't comment on IE-8 but will check it out.
