Opera is a web browser and internet suite developed by the Norwegian Opera Software company. It is a high quality, multi-platform product for a wide range of platforms, operating systems and embedded internet products. The Opera browser offers the user a unique experience with a different functionality, security, usability and accessing the web. Here are some of the things that started my romance with Opera:
Efficient surfing Transfer Manager is one of the highlights of using Opera, it’s stable and it opens in the next tab unlike other browsers that open a new mini window. Tabbed browsing which is also found in other web browsers is found in Opera. Password manager: Opera has a password manager which remembers all your usernames and passwords for you. Searching: One can search different stuff under one search field which means that you can search Google, Yahoo, Answers.Com, Amazon.com and others. Mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts: Just like all other browsers, Opera has keyboard shortcuts which can be good for saving time and jumping to the needed stuff, and it also supports mouse gestures which can allow you to access commonly used features. Notes: You can keep notes of websites that you want to refer to later or that have information that you might need. Customization: Skins give you the power for the look and feel that you want by giving it icons and colours that suit you. It also comes up in a number of languages and you can change it to suit your language. Special Features: If I am to do a presentation and I need to use the web, I can change the projection of Opera to full screen mode using the F11 key, and it can be used by internet cafes as it allows for lock down mode for unattended computers. Mail, chat and web development: Opera has its own mail, which is an email program and news reader. When it comes to web development it supports all web standards like HTML 4.1+. Security and privacy features: Under privacy and security features Opera gives you the power to delete privacy settings as soon as you exit the browser. It also offers a 256 bit encryption which is quite good in terms of web browsing. Opera gives you power of the cookies, which ones to accept or delete. One of the pluses of using Opera is that it protects the user from information phishing and other security threats.
I would say Opera offers a secure and stable environment which keeps you away from viruses and the web’s prying eyes. When it comes to speed I would say its super fast especially when you’re working with downloads, and lastly, you can customise it and give it the feel and look you want. Looking at all of the above I think my romance with Opera is just blossoming into a full relationship.
