opera, finally, documentation, innovation

I'll probably market this a lot more on Choose Opera / My Opera front page next week (due to Opera Turbo release today), but for those of you who read my blog, here's an Opera treat for you...

Many of you don't need reminders that Opera have a long (and glorious) history of browser innovation. However, the "outside world" needs to know - especially those who like to claim that they were first with something.

As many of you know, discussing the history of feature development is a potential minefield. It's important to be armed with facts, not assumptions, when talking about a particular feature or other innovation.

Therefore, our (Opera's) brilliant Documentation team has created a very comprehensive and easy-to-use history of Opera's desktop versions.

Check it out.

Good morningDeLorean

For some reason, Sony springs to mind. Even though that's in a different field altogether, it seems as if every major audio visuall innovation has been claimed as a Sony first.

Or like Internet Explorer 7, when tabbed browsing was one of it's main newest features, along with the search box in the north-east corner. jaja

Always amazed by the innovations Opera has made. Truly the slickest and easiest to use browser around.

Glad to see the coffee machine problem has been solved. Nothing worse than a lack of caffeine.

Opera is one of the first inovators

I have added it to my links here on My Opera and posted the link on facebook

Opera has always been a leader in innovation.
It has always set the bar for other foxy browsers to copy.

What, wait, I thought it was an add-on! I don't a new Opera version!

OMG why did I install it?

Opera don't have add-ons, but features.

Unless you count UserJS as "addons".

KarenNerak # Tuesday, March 17, 2009 12:07:27 AM

w00t!

FF has "Addons"...and FF is inferior!

Charles SchlossChas4 # Tuesday, March 17, 2009 12:38:04 AM

the extions are not always usable after a ff update but, the widgets and userJS are in Opera

funy that Opera has more features than ff and is smaller in size (mb)

If by "Funny" you mean "Badass", then I totally agree!

Opera don't have add-ons, but features.

I thought it was a separate application that worked along with Opera Browser, silly me I didn't read enough to realise it was a new browser so I had like two Opera Browsers and when I uninstalled the 10 all my icons where left with no Opera 9 so I had to redo everything
