Opera has been a superior product for YEARS !

However, Apple has had superior MARKETING for years (and I admire them for that :-)

I feel bad for Opera that all the great innovations haven't been noticed by the public, but the good thing is that all the other browsers copy their innovations and get much better.

My killer browsing tip (which maybe the other browsers support as well - I don't know):

- tabs to the left instead of on top

I can have 50 tabs open on my 22 monitor (in portrait mode), and I can still read most of the titles (it shows "Hacker News | Add com..." for this tab while having 50 tabs open)




OMNIWeb for OS X supports vertical display of tabs as well. They do it in a 'drawer', in the OS X interface parlance. I love this feature but eventually moved on from OMNIWeb as it got passed in stability, capability, elegance, speed, etc. by other browsers.


Hey sweet, thanks for mentioning that. I didn't know they could go there ... it's much better now.
