Linux popularity across the globe (Royal Pingdom)

Linux popularity across the globe (Royal Pingdom)
[Announcements] Posted Aug 21, 2008 15:44 UTC (Thu) by cook

Royal Pingdom has published an analysis of global Linux usage. "The Linux landscape is constantly changing and has a strong community of both developers and users. But where is Linux the most popular, and where are the different Linux distributions the most popular? To try to answer these questions, we have looked at data from Google with the highly useful Insights for Search, which gave us a number of interesting and often surprising results. Aside from just looking at Linux itself, we have included eight common Linux distributions in this survey: Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Fedora, Debian, Red Hat, Mandriva, Slackware and Gentoo."
