Opera's Opera ....

Opera - A Name many might associate with Ilaiyaraja . But for techies like me , it is a Web browser and that too one of the best.

In a world where you compete with Biggest in money , Microsoft and the biggest in Inspiration , Firefox , its difficult to make people notice you.

But Opera has competed with both of these and many others for years successfully and has been popular.

I have been using Opera for the past 3 years . I used Opera 6, Opera 7 , Opera 7.5 and Opera 8 and now Opera 8.2 .

I will vouch for the fact that "Opera is the fastest browser in the earth" , as they proclaim in their ads. It is also the browser with the smallest footprint.

It was the earliest to have tabbed browsing , a download manager , a ftp client , a Bittorrent client , voice browsing , mouse gestures , zooming etc... . I will write a separate article about the features of Opera sometime later.

Recently to celebrate their tenth anniversary they gave away free register codes to remove ads and banners. Now they have gone a step ahead and made Version 8.5 completely free..

See the release at http://opera.com/free/

Download Opera now and enjoy browsing ...
