Hi,
after much midnight hacking and after almost getting blown out of the
water by a similar offering published last week I'm releved^Hproud
to announce the unveiling of the Netcraft Web Surver Survey (relax, I'm not
trying to sell you anything).
You can read the hype when you visit the site but briefly we'll be visiting
24,000+ websites a month and presenting our findings in the form of tables,
and soon charts, depicting the demographic spread of different Web Server
software families (and distinct versions) in all domains on the net.
I'll let you draw your own conlusions from the information in the pages but
I would like to draw your attention to the magic 10% of the *.COM domain
that is attributed to sites running Apache, and to some of the top sites in
that 10%.
Thanks to Rob H, Paul R, Beth F and rst for showing enough interest to make
the weekend worth losing to a rewrite, and to you all for putting up with
my repeated claims about having 'some juicy info, but...'.
When you get the time, take a look at this place, and don't forget to come
back next month (whoops, more promises, sorry ;)

Cheers,
Ay.
