WebTrends Demos Google Chrome’s Popularity
Sep 19th, 2008 by Jennifer LeClaire
WebTrends says Internet users are embracing Google Chrome browser.
Chrome debuted three weeks ago, and it’s already the fourth most popular browser used by visitors to the web site of The Daily Telegraph, Britain’s highest selling newspaper. WebTrends Analytics certifies nearly 2 percent of traffic to telegraph.co.uk used the new browser, topping Netscape, Mozilla, Opera and other browsers.
“It’s absolutely crucial for any business with a web presence to have a clear view of the browsers that visitors are using,” said Christian Howes, WebTrends digital solutions architect. “WebTrends responded quickly to support Chrome so our customers could continue capturing and accurately measuring all of their visitors.”
WebTrends is one of the first web analytics firms to incorporate Google Chrome into its On Demand web analytics reports. This update enables customers to report on visitors that use Chrome to access their web sites in the same way as other browsers.

it’s funny, the more i use Chrome (for windows), the more unstable it seems to get… crashes a lot more, can’t handle sites with flash, hangs every time i close a tab… all that to say, i’m switching back to Firefox

It bugs me that there is another browser that we need to check our websites against. At least they are more compliant then IE.
