Safari Browser Gains Market Share in 2005

This post at TW about designing websites
for multiple browsers by DianeV, made me check out
this news item about Apple's Safari browser making significant
market gains.
Apple's Safari browser enjoyed a highly successful 2005 as the only browser to gain market share each and every month of the year. Safari ended 2004 in fourth place with 1.56% market share. Safari gained steadily to end 2005, and leaped past Netscape to grab the third leading browser spot at 3.07% market share.
The browser market is fragmenting fast and it looks like the forthcoming IE7 will render web pages differently from IE6 so that will further fragment the market.
