Chrome, a relative newbie in the browser world, appears poised to take over the No.2 spot — possibly within the next three months. Chrome’s current global average user share is 23.6 percent, according to StatCounter. User share for Firefox, the No. 2 provider after Internet Explorer, stands at 26.8 percent. Firefox will be relegated to third pace no later than the end of 2011, StatCounter predicted. A similar conclusion is reached in a report from Net Applications, although its findings suggest Chrome is overtaking Firefox at a slower pace.
