Worldwide Slovenia Day is coming
Posted by JLP on July 15th, 2007
Looks like some Mozilla developers, like Gervase Markham, have noticed that Slovenia may soon become the first country in the world where Firefox will pass the 50% point when it comes to internet browser market share. When this happens Firefox will definitely be the most used web browser in our beautiful country.
The latest report from Xiti Monitor (in French) cites Firefox share in Slovenia to be at 47,9%. Gervase even thinks that Firefox is already the most widely used browser in Slovenia. Well in my opinion this hasn’t happened quite yet. If you check out my previous blog article Slovenia loves Mozilla Firefox web browser, you can see that a Slovenian internet advertisement company Iprom measured lower share of Firefox. By about 11% lower than Xiti. As long as the difference is still the same today, then Iprom would spit out a 37% share.
In any case the share of Firefox is very high in Slovenia and we are on a very good way to truly be the first country in the world to pass the magical 50% share. And I think there is still a couple months of time left to organise the World Slovenia Day that Gervase proposes.
To all Slovenians: Let’s not let Finland beat us to it. They are only 2,5% behind us. Ditch your old, closed source and insecure browser and switch to Firefox! Let’s make the whole world proud of Slovenia!

OK, if I look at statistics of my page, there are only 29% people from Slovenia using firefox (69% using IE). But I hope that my statistics are bit wrong

It seems Whitto, that your website is for the “wrong” people =).
My reports from google analytics for 3 sites where Slovenes gather show that on
Site 1 there is 78.41% using Mozilla and only 18.81% use IE.
Site 2 there is 72.49% using Mozilla and only 22.94% use IE.
Site 3 there is 80.17% using Mozilla and only 14.87% use IE
Majority of visitors are between 17-27 years old. So it seems that young people definetlly prefer mozilla, because they know its advantages.
