State of the Web – Survey results

Webdirections.org conducted a web design survey a while ago and now the results are online. Some interesting stuff can be found in these results.

For example 1.22% of people working in the industry, are using IE6 as their primary browser. Plain HTML is still around with approx 20% still using it instead of XHTML. There’s also an improvement to the number of people who validate their pages (36%) and Microformats are still not a common place for web workers. We still do have unknown words such as RDFA. Some other interesting facts is that flash content is still heavily around for content like video. Also jQuery seems to be an industry standard in terms of Javascript usage.

In the programming part of this survey Linux, Apache, mySQL, PHP seem to be the kings around.
