opera

Opera involves singers and musicians combining text (libretto) and musical score, to produce dramatic work.

Opera is also a web browser and Internet suite developed by Opera Software.

Opera performs common Internet assignments such as displaying web sites, sending and receiving e-mails, managing contacts, downloading files with BitTorrent, and reading live feeds, but claims to do so "faster and safer" than other top browsers.

Opera is free of charge for personal computer use and mobile devices. Features of Opera include tabbed browsing, page zooming, mouse gestures, and an assimilated download manager.

Opera has security features which include automatic phishing and malware protection, strong encryption when browsing secure websites, and the ability to easily delete private data such as HTTP cookies.

You'll find bloggers talking about Opera at sites like jkOnTheRun and Uber Gizmo.
