There’s an interesting on TechCrunch derived from the consolidated activity of users of the ), and so results are necessarily skewed. Despite this, there’s an amazing result amongst the data: the ninth most-used app is Thunderbird.

Now, its usage (2.26%) may only be around a sixth of Outlook’s (12.44%) but that still seems to me to be astonishing. It also suggests that Thunderbird is doing rather better than many - myself included - assumed. The received wisdom is that Firefox is storming away (unfortunately, there’s no breakdown by browser in the RescueTime set: things are shown by site, rather), Thunderbird is miles behind. That seems not to be the case if these figures are at all representative of the wider world. And even if they’re not, it suggests early adopters are, well, adopting Thunderbird in significant numbers.
