  • Segment market share statistics, June 2015

      • parentnode.dk

    Desktop browsers still dominate with about 60% of page visits. Mobile phones take up about 35%, while the tablets only have a 5% market share. Modern browsers across platforms make up about 80% of page visits.

  • Browserstack - cross browser testing doesn't have to suck

      • parentnode.dk

    Recently I switched back to Browserstack and I must say I am impressed with the updates they have made over the last years. Roughly estimated it is top of class in all areas. Shortest way to local live testing, really good speed and all the testing features one can expect of a complete testing environment. And I especially want to applaud them for having a cheap freelancer plan - finally someone who is also considering the needs of the small individual businesses.

  • Downloading old versions of Firefox

      • parentnode.dk

    Argh ... found a bug in an old version of Firefox and want to download an old version to run local tests.

  • The UC Browser

      • parentnode.dk

    The UC Browser or UCWeb is a Chinese mobile browser first released in 2004. Initially it used a server proxy compression to speed up page rendering, using its own proprietary rendering engine (U1 + U2) and minimize data load. It currently has a leading market share in China and India.
