This year also resulted in us discontining support for IE7 as it dropped from 11% to 3%. IE saw an overall decrease of 11% while Safari increased 9% overall. If 2012&#8217;s trends continue this year, then we should be able to drop support for IE8 by mid to late 2013.<\/p>\n<h2>m.ND.edu<\/h2>\n<p>The platforms visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/m.nd.edu\/\">m.nd.edu<\/a> shifted slightly as iPhone went from 45% to 51%, Android dropped from 35% to 29%, desktop browsers (Mac and Windows combined) climbed from 3% to 14% and poor neglected Blackberry dropped from 5% to 1%. I find the increase in desktop traffic interesting.
