Flash Penetration on Adobe Groups

DIGG IT!     2 Comments Published Thursday, March 26, 2009 at 10:40 AM .

We have a Google Analytics account on Adobe Groups and I have been reviewing statistics weekly. In the month of March, here are the stats related to Flash Player detection:



Flash Player 10.0 r12 = 39.68%
Flash Player 10.0 r22 = 24.34%
Flash Player 10.0 r2 = 6.73%
Flash Player 9.0 r124 = 11.65%
Flash Player 9.0 r151 = 4.79%
Flash Player 9.0 r115 = 2.92%
Flash Player 9.0 r45 = 1.47%
Flash Player 9.0 r47 = 0.95%
Flash Player 9.0 r28 = 0.60%
NOT SET = 4.51%

Basically, 70.75% are Flash Player 10, 22.38% are Flash Player 9, and 4.51% have not setting.

What is interesting to me is that 100% of the players detected support ActionScript 3 and only 4.51% were not detected. This data was collected from March 1 - March 26, 2009 in a pool of 56,896 visits and 39,927 unique users.

What is also interesting is the browser used:

FireFox WIN = 34.63%
IE WIN = 34.14%
FireFox MAC = 11.63%
Safari MAC = 11.62%
Chrome WIN = 4.44%
All others below 1%

Long story short 4.51% of the visitors to Adobe Groups are robots!

Cheers,

Ted :)

    Remember to explain that when tallying up Flash player totals, the results are ADDITIVE. I'll let you elaborate further on the definition and how it applies to understanding Flash Player impressions.

    I'm also currious to see if you have data about AS2 vs AS3? What are the proportion of SWF files that are coded in AS3? I think that a lot of developers have done the switch of technology but I'm not sure about designers who are used to code on the timeline. Any data on this?
