News.com reports that Firefox is gaining market share in the browser war. This according to onestat.com, a web stats company based in the Netherlands. Microsoft discredits the stats from Onestats.com, saying they don't jibe with their other companies like WebSiteStory's stats. I have questions about the accuracy of Onestat's numbers (and websidestory's for that matter), but the point is that they are showing a significant change from their numbers a couple months ago, which show there is obviously some shifting in the browser marketplace.
I don't think Mozilla or any other browser will ever overtake IE in the market leadership role as long as Windows dominates the OS market (this is Microsoft we're talking about here, remember?), but it's nice to see a little competition in the browser industry again, which will hopefully drive innovation in all Web browsers.
