In absolute numbers Internet Explorer ends up being about 1%. Webkit is almost 75% if you add Chrome + Safari + Mobile Safari. Even Mobile Safari is used more than Internet Exploder (sic)!

I am basing this on Google Analytics, and the fact that 90% of what I blog about is Play! Framework, or Java related.
