Remembers the days when we have to use Internet Explorer (IE) the only web browser available. The latest version IE 8 is dying as its global share is now less than 50%. Microsoft tried its best to keep pace with the other competing browsers but browsers like Opera, Chrome, Safari and Firefox had outclassed the IE. Now a day’s users have choice to choose the best one.
MyTake: If we notice not just web browsers however for every product or commodity the users have a choice. Whether it’s an electronic appliance, car, house or an Internet service provider there are so many players. Ultimately end user is the winner.
