On: Web browser market share of all times visualized

[pkorzeniewski]

I can't decide if it's a success that Opera is still on the market, or a failure that after 10 years they still have so minor share. Sure, 1.71% is a lot of users given the size of market, but if you look at the charts they had 0.78% in 2002 so they gained 1% in 10 years.. I don't get it, couldn't they find a way to interest more people in such long time?

if a company is still active after 10 years, earns good money, employes a lot of people and still manages to build good and valuable products, then they are - in my point of view - an impressive success-story.

The market itself grew enormously in the same time.
