Comment Re:Use data from the federal government's DAP? (Score 1) 187
As someone who does website development for government and private, as well as lots of analytics experience in both, I can confirm that the usage trends of technology around browser and OS are very different between government and private.
On government sites, you'll see lots of antiquated usage (e.g. Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 7), as a lot of the site traffic is a mixture of external and internal usage. Generally, the internal usage is Internet explorer and Windows 7 based. Externals tend to use more appropriate combinations, including Linux.
Basically, using Government stats to understand the client base of the internet is not a true representation of that population!
