From the BBC News site

More than 10% of net users are going online with the Firefox browser, show figures from analysis firm One Stat.

The global average of 11.5% is the highest percentage of users that the open source browser has ever reached.

What does this mean to you? Well if you've got a site that says 'Best viewed in Internet Explorer' or if you haven't checked your site in a browser other than IE you could be turning away up to 15% of all your visitors - 1 in 7!

Make sure you check your site in Firefox, make sure you don't use any Microsoft HTML extensions, stick to W3C compilant HTML and CSS. In short the days of assuming everyone is using one browser are hopefully coming to an end.
