Top 15 reasons to use Opera

  1. Tomorrow’s browser today
    Speed Dial, Page Zoom, Synchronize, tabs above Address Bar and many more. Opera’s features are often emulated by other browsers. Read below to see why we are often called the Research & Development center of the browser industry.
  2. Instant navigation
    With Mouse Gestures and extensive keyboard shortcuts, you will never need to click the back button again.
  3. It is FAST
    Opera invented fast browsing. We were fast before the other guys were even born. From day one speed has been a prime focus, something that is visible to anyone using Opera. This is not just about tests, but real life.
  4. Super safe
    An outstanding security record (according to Secunia) in addition to the included fraud and malware protection.
  5. Synchronize your life
    With Opera Link your PC, Mac and mobile browsers are all synced with bookmarks, notes and more.
  6. Tabbed browsing master
    Opera is the pioneer of tabbed browsing with features like undo closed tab and rearrange tab order.
  7. Speed Dial
    Another first from Opera–access your favorite Web sites with a thumbnail quick-dial. Opera lets YOU decide which sites should be there, unlike other browsers.
  8. Save tabs for later
    With sessions you can save different tabs for opening at another time.
  9. Zoom in & out
    Opera introduced this feature where you can zoom into Web pages to read small fonts and get a closer look at image details without straining your eyes.
  10. Fill forms & passwords
    With the Wand, you never have to retype your information.
  11. Unique & customizable
    Opera’s uniqueness lies in its personality and tradition which is obvious every time you use it. At the same time, you can customize it with hundreds of skins and configuration options.
  12. Look nowhere else
    Read your RSS feeds, download BitTorrent files and access your email–all from the browser.
  13. Opera runs on all (even older) hardware
    Opera believes that even your old computer deserves to continue being in use longer. Our goal is to run on up to 10 year old computers and on real world networks. Thus you will notice a significantly faster browsing experience on your old computer on a slow network, and Opera Turbo now makes it even faster.
  14. The Opera community
    More than 2 million members of the most helpful, fun and passionate community anywhere.
  15. It’s FREE!

  14. Do you think it would be interesting to create a modern side by side comparison of performance of web browsers? A lot of them are bloated with features and people seem to think they’re better because of that but a performance test would bring out the winners.

  22. Just to make it “My Opera Official” as well, (sorry if these don’t go here, as I can’t find a “welcome” post), but…:hat: Happy birthday!

  25. Don’t forget Opera is capable of being used with ~150 Tabs per window (Tabs much thinner than their Buttons) ^^ (I do it often like that -> minimum Tabs: 50 ) in gigantic sessions -> > 4 GB RAM -highly_ recommended ^^Firefox, Internet Explorer & Safari not able to manage it, Chrome more bad than good

  28. :rip: R.I.P. Presto it was nice, you helped making the web better its the end of an age http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyF2jp0s0Xwbut there is a (hopefully golden) new age -> Hello webkit in Opera http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4W2OMaTH3o-> Yes, its logic not to do program work what already exists & helps by sharing (the good OpenSource principle) more people even more & save time of Opera Guys (& Girls of course) -> brings advantages: even more Innovation, Feature polishing + BugfixesEdit: this thinking of an OpenSource Core could be the Chance to make Operas Rendering engine & Caracan JavaScript engine OpenSource like Konqueror got Chrome in Hearth -> Presto spreads over the Internet like KHTMLhttp://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=1622812&
