While trying to figure out if it was still important to support screen resolutions of 800x600, I pulled up several of the most visited websites to see where they fall. Here are the ones that work in a width of 800 or less:
- baidu
- blogger
- go
- google (also: gmail, google calendar, google reader)
- rapidshare
- skyrock
- wikipedia
And here are the sites that aim for 1024px and require horizontal scrolling at 800px:
- amazon
- aol
- bbc
- bing (aka live.com)
- cnn
- craigslist
- dailymotion
- ebay
- flickr
- friendster
- imdb
- microsoft
- msn
- myspace
- orkut
- photobucket
- wordpress
- yahoo
And w3schools says it is at about 1% for their visitors. Sure seems like support for 800px wide displays has gone out of style. Guess those iPads will spend most of their time turned sidways.
