It remains the third most popular browser in the market and that is a huge achievement considering it is fairly new to the market.

It has managed to overtake both Apple Safari and Opera in the recent years though next target is going to be very tough.

Mozilla Firefox has a 30% market share and it could take Chrome a couple of years before it can start challenging it.

Google Chrome OS is arriving later this year… If this netbook platform becomes a hit, it would most certainly boost the share of Chrome.
