Firefox Cranks Up the Share

The Mozilla folks tossed around some pretty wild market share numbers for their browser (in the upper teens, as I recall) but I knew better. In my mind, I kept saying it was a point or two over 10! Days later, research from Net Applications had me patting myself on the back (this habit is so bad, my rotator cuff is permanently shot!). It turns out Firefox's share worldwide is 12.46 percent. Another research house, OneStat, pegs Firefox at 11.49 percent. Wonder if the two shops compared notes?
