Two months are already gone since the launch of Google Chrome. Its market share still around 3% (source: w3school accessed on the 6th of November 2008). From the data available, we can see how IE still losing market share. Users who leave IE6 (-2.1%) are more than the ones who move on IE7 (+0.6%). The winner in this battle still Firefox that gained 1.4% of the market share.
One of the reasons why Google Chrome’s market share isn’t increased yet it is probably because of the missing google toolbar. Many users still complaining about this problem and most of them said they won’t use Google Chrome until the Google toolbar is available.

Google Chrome has been launched less than a month ago and has already reached 3.1% of the market share (source: w3school accessed on the 4th of October 2008).
If this trend continues (and probably it will), in few months Google Chrome will be the leader of the market! I bet on it!
Only a recommedation:
People still complaining about the missing google toolbar. Google Chrome is the best browser I have ever tried: fast, clear, and usable. But please Google Guys… the toolbar is absolutely needed. And I really hope you will come up with a wonderful original Google Chrome Toolbar… something like the one I hypothesized in one of my previous post: Google Chrome in the 3 most used browsers: how long will it take?
Or maybe something better, something that we human beings can’t neither imagine! 
Ciao
