Google's Chrome edges Microsoft's IE as top browser

구글의 크롬 브라우저가 사상 처음으로 MS의 IE 브라우저를 넘어서 세계 최다 점유율 브라우저가 됐다.

해외 언론은 이제 MS의 아성이 무너졌다며 브라우저시장의 판도 변화에 놀라움을 감추지 못했다.


올해 4월 기준 구글의 점유율은 데스크탑 경우 41.7%로 MS의 IE 41.4%를 근소한 차이로 앞질렀다.

지난 3월에는 구글이 39% IE가 43.4%를 기록했었다.


이는 구글의 브라우저가 급속히 확산되고 있다는 반증이다.


한편 모질라의 파이어 폭스는 9.7% 점유율로 3위를 차지했으며 유럽의 오페라 및 애플의 사파이는 

각각 1.9%와 4.9%의 점유율을 기록했다.


구글의 브라우저의 사용이 급격히 증가하는 이유는 인터넷에서 구현하는 속도 차이와 고객 위주의 브라우저 

환경 때문이다.


MS의 인터넷 익스플로어도 최근에 크롬과 유사한 환경으로 업그레이드 되었으나 아직 속도와 편리성에 있어 

따라오지 못하고 있다.

NEW YORK—Microsoft's Internet Explorer is no longer king of the browser hill.


That distinction belongs instead to Google’s Chrome, which according to NetMarketShare.com (known also as Net Applications.com), registered a collective desktop market share for all versions of the browser of 41.67% in April, nipping IE, which had a 41.37% share. The market share for Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer's successor, is included in the tally.


Mozilla Firefox (9.76%), Apple Safari (4.91%) and Opera (1.89%) round out the top five. On a version-by-version basis, NetMarketShare reports that Chrome 49 was the leader in April with a 21.79% share, besting runner-up IE 11 at 19.88%.


Microsoft pretty much kicked the venerable Internet Explorer to the curb when it chose a brand new Web browser, Microsoft Edge, for Windows 10. Then this past January, Microsoft announced it was ending technical support and security updates for all versions of IE except the current version IE 11.


A rival tracker company, StatCounter, which measures usage differently than NetMarketShare, already had Chrome in the lead.


Internet Explorer has been dominant browser space since the latter stages of the 20th Century when it toppled Netscape, leading to a famous antitrust case that Microsoft and the U.S. Dept. of Justice ultimately settled.


As recently as June 2015, IE had nearly double the share of Chrome (54.00% versus 27.23%). But IE has been on the decline ever since, largely to Chrome's benefit. Firefox has also fallen.


These days, Microsoft has turned its attention to Edge. In a blog post just last week, the company announced that on Windows 10, Edge will be the only browser that will launch when you search from a Cortana search box.
