Opera Browser

While the crowd is busy talking about the upcoming Firefox 3 release, one cannot ignore Opera (version 9.50) web browser that has just left the building.

If you compare the layout of Opera 9.5 with IE or Firefox, you’ll notice a small difference – Opera places browser tabs above the address bar while the other browser do the reverse. This is a minor change but good nevertheless.

Opera is Internet browser innovation. Our features, speed and security will give you the best browser experience available. More than 20 million people use Opera as their preferred browser of choice. Feel free to download and judge for yourself.

There’s another very useful feature of Opera 9.5 that you should not miss. Go to Tools –> Appearance –> Toolbars and select the “Show Inside Address Bar” option under Progress Bar.

Now as you open websites, the address bar gets replaced by a progress bar and you can know the exact reasons why some page may be loading slow on your machine.

There’s another unique feature in Opera 9.5 – if you have multiple websites open inside the browser, you can arrange them as tiles or cascade them just like the Windows Desktop.

And the best part is the intelligent address bar of Opera 9.5. It suggests websites as you type looking into your browser history – and Opera doesn’t just look into the page titles or the URL, it looks into the actual content of the web page as well while giving you suggestions.
