If you mean my personal blog, Chrome is at ~15%, less than IE. It's only been up for 2 months though, so I wouldn't put much trust in my stats.

I think it's bogus because global Chrome usage is around 10%, according to the sources I linked to above. The fact that 40% of their visitors use Chrome now, does not mean that their potential future visitors will match that statistic.

Discounting a lot of future users that use IE based on one month's worth of analytics is madness.

It's not just a statistics problem, it's also a logic problem. I don't think it's in poor judgement to assume their audience, given their function and distribution channels, are largely Chrome and Firefox.

The key part of this post is that it is directed to startups. They're not suggesting they should dismiss IE users forever, but like many comments say it is about delegating resources properly where they matter.
