I'm exploring Opera's move into the smartphone market after they revamped their site to focus on mobile. Even though I don't fully understand the tech, their browser seems to handle small-screen rendering and mobile web browsing effectively.
I'm switching from Internet Explorer to Opera 5.11, favoring its innovative zoom function and mouse gestures over IE's table-pasting capabilities. I hope Opera survives the browser wars as Netscape's influence continues to fade.
I link to evidence of MSN intentionally sabotaging the Opera browser by serving it malformed CSS. This anti-competitive browser sniffing forced Opera users into a broken layout to encourage switching to Internet Explorer.
I noticed that the Opera 6 Beta has been released, marking a significant update for the browser during the early 2000s. It offers a fast, feature-rich alternative to the dominant browsers of the era.
I evaluated Netscape, Opera, and Mozilla but returned to Internet Explorer for its integration with the A9 toolbar and Google Desktop. These search tools solved my offline browsing needs better than Opera’s built-in features.
I tested the Opera 7 beta and found that while the new visual design quickly becomes tiring, the browser remains fast and offers significantly better standards compliance than previous versions.
