GetJar is once again offering the Opera Mini browser, albeit with one big modification.
GetJar pulled Opera’s browsers last month after Opera began offering a rival app store from within its mobile browsers. Now Opera is back on GetJar’s virtual shelves, but without the app store.

Our next highlights video from our
D@CES event last week is of Microsoft Internet Explorer chief Dean Hachamovitch.

Microsoft’s Internet Explorer browser is still the world’s most popular, but its dominance is being steadily eroded by competition from Mozilla, Google and Apple. Can a new, aggressive approach to privacy change that?

First things first, for those emailing me frantically about getting into our
D@CES onstage interview event later today at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas: We’re sold out and have a very long wait list.
That said, people in Sin City tend to flake out, so if you show up at the Marcello Ballroom at the Venetian at 3 pm, you might snag a seat to see us grill some tech execs well done with a side of news.

The latest
month-to-month changes in Web browser share, as calculated by analytics outfit Net Applications, are measured in tenths of a percentage point, but they’re consistent with the year-to-date trends–namely significant gains for Google’s Chrome, modest gains for Apple’s Safari and slight slippage for everyone else. In October, Microsoft IE held 59.26 percent (off about three points since January), Mozilla’s Firefox edged down to 22.82 percent (down from 24.43 percent in January), Chrome rose to 8.47 percent (up more than three points for the year), Safari crept up to 5.33 percent (eight-tenths of a point better than January) and Opera trailed with a steady 2.28 percent.

Over the past few years, Internet Explorer’s share of the global browser market has slipped to a little over 60 percent from the more than 90 percent share it once held in 2003, according to Net Applications. So the release of Internet Explorer 9 to beta today is an important one for Microsoft, which hopes it will slow the gains of Google’s Chrome and Firefox at a time when more and more consumers are using the browser as a gateway to online services.
