Microsoft announced Friday it has hit the 100 million installation milestone for Internet Explorer 7, a figure that makes the new browser the second most used behind IE6. Web analytics firm WebSideStory reports that 25 percent of all Web surfers in the United States are now running IE7.

"We expect these numbers to continue to rise as we complete our final localized versions, scale up AU distribution, and with the consumer availability of Windows Vista on January 30, 2007," wrote IE group program manager Tony Chor on the IEBlog.

GRIN!

It's funny to see this happening now after all we've been through. In a way, it is a little anti-climactic, because we are watching the US installs climb first. A year ago, I would have thought that would be good for symbol domains.

I am getting more symbols hits now than ever, and the rest of the portfolio is going from slow to good - PPC (slowly but surely) rising like the beginning of a tidal wave.

These are the good times. Like a long walk to the port is over, now riding by ship, and land is just over the horizon. Bringing us home....
