The Browser Battle and More Bookmark Updates

There has been a fair amount of discussion on the browser war. In Has IE 7 turned back Firefox? it appears that the controversy continues with a a management consulting firm saying that the growth of Firefox has slowed in favor of IE7. The linked article reports that a web metrics company immediately disputed the conclusion saying that IE7's introduction has helped Firefox rather than the other way around.

Not that Security Garden is a "major player", I do check the analytics on occasion. Until I published the article last night with IE7 in the title, it was exactly even with IE7 and Firefox 2.0 sharing an equal 32% of the readership here. However, that article upped the percentage to 39% for IE7. On that note, I have made some additional updates to the Internet Explorer 7 page.

Another popular bookmark page is ReadyBoost. That has also had an addition as have the other pages listed below.
