Friday, 20. July 2007, 19:49:17

, ,

I was tagged by Pallab & operafan2006. Blog tag was started by Daniel Goldman.

5 things I’d like to see in Opera:

  1. Inline spell checker
  2. Block off-site content
  3. Undo closed window
  4. Delete private data on exit
  5. Reorder search engines

I tag Neeraj Deshmukh, Steve, João Eiras, Saddle Magic & Tobias Murano.

I hope I am not getting Claudio Santambrogio in problems now, but your wish 3 will be granted :smile:


Note: make sure not to close a window with several tabs in it if you want to have them part of your session: currently there is unfortunately no way of restoring an accidentally closed window (accidentally closed tabs are easily re-opened), but, pssst, this is fixed in Kestrel.

No worries, NoteMe :smile: And yes, I myself really was missing that! (and a few more things...)

How about support for external editors for blogging? Maybe it already exists and I just haven't found it yet, but it would be nice to be able to quickly just post thoughts from my editor vice going through the site. Just a thought :smile:
