The little office generated pie graphs do show this, but of the billion or
so using the vast interwebs, even a very small percentage use RSS.
Have a look at the office I currently work in, and I consultancy firm. I am
the only one that has a dedicated RSS reader, and there is one other that
uses RSS to get down podcasts through iTunes to his iPod.
There is one who has been in IT ten years, and has never heard of RSS.
I guess you could associate RSS with Firefox in it user base. There are few
that use it because they didn't realize they were, I see these every day,
one the other day said why does my Internet Explorer look different to hers
(pointing at her colleague), her colleague had ie7, she had Firefox2 that
had been set as the default browser.
Then there are those of us that have been using Firefox for years, whether
due to its superiority, awesome add-ons or love of Foxes.
