Browser and Connection Speed

Viewing google analytics is a little "tricky," but I think once a person gets comfortable with all the data, there's some great info to be found.

I was able to find that the most common browser used to access the blog was Safari with 62.5%.  This was followed by Internet Explorer at 20%, and lastly, 17.5% using Firefox.  I actually thought this was interesting since I incorrectly assumed most users were accessing via Firefox and Internet Explorer.  When I use my school laptop (a Mac), I tend to use Safari, although I can use Firefox as well.  When using my home laptop (a Dell), I use Internet Explorer.

With regard to connection speed, cable was at 65%.  This far surpassed "unknown" connections with 17.5%, DSL at 15% and T1 at 2.5%.  This data did not surprise me since I think most users these days favor the cable connection.
