BlogHer Survey Results

Wednesday, Sep 1, 2010

Find out how BlogHer fans use their browsers according to Mozilla’s survey of BlogHer ’10 attendees.

What’s better than a Cosmo Quiz?

  1. Finding out other people’s answers to the quiz.
  2. Slick online tools that turn data into talking points.
  3. Pink and blue pie charts.
  4. The survey Mozilla offered at New York’s BlogHer ’10
  5. All of the above.

It’s “5″, of course.

So, without further adieu, here’s what you told us:

-Over 350 of you took a breather from BlogHer ’10 to take our quiz. Thank you!

-You’re foxy ladies! More than 90% of you browse with Firefox. Another big thank you!

-Most of you value speed in a Web browser, and everyone else is split between security and having a browser so simple, you never have to think about it.

-Most of you know about add-ons, but everyone has her own favorite, which also happen to be some of the add-ons we’ve reviewed right here: Firefox Sync, StumbleUpon, WiseStamp Email Signature, and Evernote Web Clipper, plus lots of others we’ll be talking about in the future.

-About a third of you go for social media add-ons, 20% of you like utilities, another 20% go for photos, 15% pick the developer friendly flavor of add-on and 8% shop ’til you drop.

-Yikes! 75% of you hadn’t heard of Rock Your Firefox (cue record scratch). Well, now you have.

-For those of you who don’t use Firefox add-ons, it is usually because you don’t know how they will help you. Reading Rock Your Firefox can fill you in!

If you missed the BlogHer Add-on the first time, check it out now, and get conversations and stories from women in social media, right in your browser. Update My BlogHer Chatter, scan stories and share on Facebook and Twitter, too.

There’s also a BlogHer Collection of Firefox Add-ons, perfect for anyone who blogs or enjoys social media.

      Hi Britny,

      Just to clear up some confusion, this survey ran during the BlogHer 2010 Conference; it actually closed in early August.

      Mozilla representatives encouraged BlogHer attendees to take the survey through in-person conversations and other BlogHer channels, not a Firefox-specific interaction.

      Apologies to any users who thought this post was about a survey that is currently open. It’s just about the results.

      Thanks for reading,
      Elise

      Hi Vidyarathne,

      For this time there’s no way to participate, we’re just sharing the results of a survey that’s now closed. If RYFX readers are interested in taking a survey, I can work on that. Let me know…
