Opera browser 12-year history

[naryanr]

Not as fast, stable or customisable as Chrome, but I definitely prefer it to Firefox.

*Wish* they would sort out their rich text rendering algorithm though, I can't believe we're on version 11.60 and they STILL haven't even bothered looking at it.

[madzane94]

Opera is perfection in browsing

[bibixupaqui]

i like to use opera versions in beta or pre alpha version. And i do not have crashes. Simply format your hard drive.

Opera is the most stable browser.

[bibixupaqui]

Opera 4eveR!!!

I discovered opera some years ago I've been using him since version 9, and definitely is the best

[tpiom]

I just found this browser yesterday... coming from Firefox. Why didn't I change earlier?! It's SO much better!

[paulboon]

for movie lovers veehd.com have recently adopted opera have fun

[guitarsandwomen]

Opera 11.50 kicks ass and faster than any of the other browsers.I have used them all.My GOD it is so fast that I thought i had my Antivirus disabled but it is on as well as my Zonealarm firewall.I did at one time like ie 6 and older versions of Firefox before FF 3.6.Still have 3.5.8 an older version of FF on my PC but since everyone is being forced to upgrade Opera is now my favorite browser.Awesome that it has so many features built in and super fast.Im only using extensions WOT an AdBlock.

[Renew3D]

I love Opera. I'm using it atm.

[dactung93]

Today, when I am watching this clip, Opera has had 15 years of development and it still performs an very amazing race.

Opera is the best Web browser on the world

[Homade79]

and then came Chrome

[NetrinoYT]

11.10 beta ....getting better ALWAYS!!!

[Asim999ful]

it is the worst browser ever believe me guys i am not lying just download chrome and you will see the differnce opera make my speed go down i dont know of yours condition

[spaecialxara]

i have opera 10 and crashes all the time...i cant even access youtube...

[bambarby]

comments here are fishy as fuk. Never heard of Opera browser till today

[Homade79]

@bambarby ok i am not an Opera fan but what cave you been living in? bet you never heard of the internet till then either

[oshilzl]

This is the best browser, why?:

1 its the safest browser due to its closed code, nothing comes close to the safety of opera

2 It's fast speeds compare to chrome and firefox

3. i hardly crashes. chrome crashes alot and sometimes with firefox

[MirageBistro]

@N7242C

Firefox and Chrome are Microsoft sanctioned browsers. They both suck compared to the only OS-neutral browser, Opera.

[garagecrap]

@N7242C you have to be really stupid to use Firefox and Chrome not to mention Explorer.

[ForwardCompass]

What is the deal with the similarity between Oprah and Opera, both using identical O's as symbols.

[Estelar2011]

Esse Opera NUNCA se lembra de dar suporte em português do Brasil! Lança o navegador DIFERENTE DOS DEMIAS aqui e se esquece que aqui se fala português! Essa é a minha maior reclamação sobre este navegador, pois esse pouco caso, ESSA DISCRIMINAÇÃO, é INACEITÁVEL!!!

[vikidator]

I like that,I'm giving publicity to opera for almost 8 years,and - of course - it's my favourite browser. But-(imho) it's not perfect,especially if running above WinXP.

[proudofmycity]

I've been using Opera 11 (beta) and it's fast as fuck, chrome is slow and I have compared it also to Firefox and also Internet Explorer 9 (beta). Just extremely fast, and is a joy to use which is what using the internet is all about.

[MrDumbassman]

OOO OPERA 6

[GabbyShae]

All I use ...

[evanisevan23]

i hate the sound it makes for facebook chat though..

[BlackHart2518]

SHIT I mean, SHIT browser ...unless your a NOOB!

[deathbearriez]

i'm using Opera right now.i can see Opera evolving and improving... but still,my favourite is Chrome...but somehow,my perception might change because of Opera 11...

[Paspiedreamcast]

I'm using Opera 10.63 right now, literally.

[EliteGraphics0182]

i hate opera

[BlackHart2518]

@EliteGraphics0182 soooo true absolute SHIT!!!!!!!!!!

[jdmmer]

I'm using this for a while now, I tried all other browsers, but I prefer Opera. It's maybe not the fastest, but it's the most user-friendly browser I saw.

[TlPeanut]

Ok, I guess chrome is a little faster, but chrome just feels empty. Opera is fast and it's amazing! Chrome is only fast because they've taken loads of important shit away.

There's also loads of glitches and bugs in chrome.

[moose875]

@TlPeanut Faster by a microscopic amount and they take up 3.5 gb of our important system RAM just to have 8 tabs open. Opera on the other hand 800mb. OPERA IS DA BEST!!!

[NOLIMIT3O5]

opera is the fastest browser but hardly faster than chrome and chrome is better anyways

[lukecopps]

@NOLIMIT3O5

Its the fastest browser but hardly faster than Chrome?

Dipshit.

[HaligonianType1]

I have been using Opera since 1997. The last two builds were buggy, but most of the issues seem to have been addressed in 10.60.

[earlnuclear]

Opera user reporting in. Best browser.

[Seyxxx]

Please guys help : / I have upgraded my opera browser to newest version and now every search engines (or sign up engines) or etc on every pages dissapeared O_o I've tried a lot (100x reinstalled already) but can't find out whats wrong :'o I dont want to change it coz I'm already addicted to opera but.. : / help please

[CabbageNappa]

@Seyxxx version (include release status) and platform please

[Seyxxx]

@CabbageNappa Thanks dude, but I've already solved it by myself, I just accidentally clicked on "disable smthng" in View menu, after about 10 hours of searching I got it.

But thanks .)

[UralAlexandr]

Opera the best browser.

From Russia with respect.

[crazystuffjt]

Opera has to be the best browser; and I would know from experience. I have tried all the well-known browsers and I highly recommend Opera. Here is the true placement ranking of the browsers that I have tried:

1. Opera

2. Google Chrome

3. Firefox

4. Internet Explorer

[Revolltio]

i heard, that opera is for homosexual people. Is that really true?!?!?!

[DKBoy911]

@Revolltio

i heard, that the youtube user 'Revolltio' is gay. Can you tell me if it's true??

[jollypop2008]

@DKBoy911 LOL!

[2pj2the2best2]

@Revolltio most likeley not,because there would be MUCH gay people around,even children that are 7 and uses opera for browsing.

[IAMMAFINN]

I love Opera i am using it on my ubuntu!

[123halo97]

and now its on the iPhone & iPod Touch :]

i personly like Google's browser the best but *Opera is on a clear second place! :)

[midwest9595]

I wanted to like opera but it sucks. Opera would freeze on CNN's website, once a video started if you tried anything else none of the links or video controls were active anymore. It also would not load the Daily show's website, I tried 5 times. I got tired of pages not loading correctly. I wanted to like opera but it sucks. Firefox is getting really slow now so the only browser thats worth a damn now is chrome, yay big brother is watching :)

[MRCrashFusion]

I have tried all of them. Internet Explorer,Firefox,Opera,Chrome and Safari. I never really even got into Safari. I still use Internet Explorer. Firefox...it is ok but I don't really like it. People say Chrome is spyware by Google. Opera is great so far. So basically I use IE8 and Opera.

[meast1000]

I use opera.

[MartinLoronzo]

Can somebody tell me what's the name of the song/band in background playing?

[cyberdonald]

@MartinLoronzo Hey! The song is:

The Crystal Method - Busy Child

=)

[martinthew]

These days I'm stuck between opera and chrome:

Chrome's a bit faster but opera's got more features.

[khpconan]

Opera 10.50 is faster than Chrome

[martinthew]

I disagree, on this netbook I'm using, chrome is faster, plus opera 10.5 has crashed lotsa times so far. I'm still undecided with my browsers, but chrome seems better since they released the addons for chrome. That alone made me give up firefox entirely and safari was never competition to begin with.

[khpconan]

Well, I think that chromium is faster than opera but not chrome (in windows).

And it's normal that opera crashes, it's just a alpha

[NamelessNLS]

its a beta you nooob

[martinthew]

@NamelessNLS

If you read my comment you'd know that even though it's in beta, it's still not as fast as chrome beta while running on my netbook.

[midwest9595]

only when it works, a large number of websites I went to do not work correctly in Opera, like CNN or the daily show on Comedy Central, major websites won't work right, I tried to like Opera but after just 2 days I got pissed...

[chilapa90]

sorry but firefox is way faster than opera but fucking love opera's pop up blocker ... it's just the best

piss

[MikiSk8er]

no way ... firefox is slow as hell if you add all addons to provide HALF of functionality of operas built in features ... and those addons on ff are really annoying updating all the time restarting browser and very often crashing

[devilchr]

If you have Firefox Slow use Speedyfox is simply and Make your firefox faster :D

[MikiSk8er]

Thats really funny ... Yet another addon ... and i can add Millions of addons and it will never provide such functionality as opera do. I wad developing web for travel agency and I was using only standard css styles. But without any editing it displayed properly only on opera, I spent hell lot of time to optimize it for firefox abd ie.. chrome was not too bad but also not right displaying

[devilchr]

Speedyfox is not a addon,Is a software Download it a tell me

[deckard901]

Opera is the best brower ever :)

[omaifakingad]

@deckard901 TRUE.

[TheGDIcreateswealth]

my opinion Safari is the fastest browser ;)

[xxxxxDre4mxxxxx]

Stupid name for a browser. They will never win with that name.

[lPSTutorialsl]

Skins for opera 9 are awesome!

[ThinkTink606432]

Opera 10 beta is awesome. A must download!

[lindsaymobil22]

i agree, opera is a fantastic browser!! its lightning fast & really easy to use!! but i use orca now which is that little bit faster but its based on firefox 3 which i didnt like the layout of!! it's really just speed i'm after!!

[MrHEPennyPacker]

I tried them all,  i don't hate any browser, but Opera is the only one i really like.

[mynameisdarthtater]

same here. i would use chrome, but the damn thing gave me tons of broken link errors

[lij8]

opera is the best

[siegfried182005]

i think opera is the best browser out there...

[TAZHEL]

opera is norwegian!!!

[fuzzbox350]

its always been my fav browser and its still the fastest on the planet but it really is a pity they decided to give it such a gay name

[koCmoC36]

i cant see nothing bad in the name...

[ItseSproductions]

Fuzzbox is probably thinking of the art/music kind of opera. It's very sad he thinks it's gay though.

[TheChris4]

If I see clips of cool feachers of other browsers, I must think the hole time "This can Opera, too! And this alredy since years!"

And the best thing is: I don´t even know ALL that he is capable of!

What is also love on Opera is that he just haves one Window and everything is in there! Not thousands of Windows, just taps.

Opera is like Light! Other Browsers can´t never catch up!

Opera Rockes!

[UserFo]

Nice work!

[netwalker72]

Opera 10 alpha - acid test 100/100.

Opera = comfort & quickness

Is the ONE. Period.

[kwenkun]

This video is freaky because at 1:48 the speed dial almost too similar to mine...with google on first, facebook in mid and number 9 left blank =)

[kyu3a]

This video is cooooool♪ :)

[RagglyBeastie]

From the look of this video, it looks like Opera is the mastermind behind mouse gestures, tabbed browsing, and zooming into web pages. o.o

Plus, it seems to be a very good browser overall, passing Acid tests like that...

I can see why it's the browser of choice for a lot of devices, even the Wii.

[diwiyapura]

Opera is  future-proof

[dksuhg]

boykott FF & the big GOOGLE that pushes these browser GO OPERA!! NOW!!!!

BEST BROWSER ON UNIVERSE!

[levo75]

You are ignorant of the fact that opera software makes most of its revenue through google and yahoo searches through opera browser.

[levo75]

Best BROSER ever!

[3R3MITE]

Why does YouTube look like shit in it? Why doesnt it render fonts properly?

[laphongtudo]

@odakueffect That doesn't make sense. I wouldn't be using Mozilla or any other browser like chrome,safari, or Internet Explorer if it wasn't usable. If any program wasn't usable who would download it? Nobody. Exactly why the other browsers are being used to.

[SarDira]

go opera... we wish you 100+ and more years of success and web industry leading with innovative ideas, rock solid functionality, starlight speeds and a lot of hardcore fans

[DricoMarcal]

For me, Opera is almost an OS.

[godtakethequeen]

Opera is equal with "Firefox plus extensions". Opera is the best browser out of the box.

[al3baidly]

In Linux, Opera sucks with its flash support and Firefox is the best choice.

Opera is the best in my mobile.

I am waiting for Linux Google Chrome. I will use it with Firefox. Gecko is the best.

[salad170]

Opera owns everyone! I can't wait for 10 (it will be awsome :))

[christi1992]

Opera ROCKS FIREFOX AND OTHER SUCKS

[telewizorr]

OPERA is MONSTER FOR SURFING! if somone learn all opera option, cant try using other browser,firefix is god but OPERA got a mutch more option for easy used internet, now IE7 and FIREFOX copying solution what was be on opera. i cant imagine working on other browser like OPERA=BEST BROWSER & greeting for users! ;)

[poloshirtnew]

Go Opera!

[bideitcleverly]

Opera became boring!

just 2 simple example:

"Accept only cookies from the site I visit"

,it sucks! It doesn't work with Hotmail unless you change its site preferences.Signing out of Yahoo Mail is in fact impossible ! You checked your mail then you click on sign out,now you are on Yahoo main page,you think you have signed out of Yahoo Mail but if you click on Mail icon,you will see your mail box again!!

Blocking some contents seems impossible!

etc...It does need an huge improvement!!

[AmericanOldGlory]

I'm a recent convert to Opera. I must say, it surpasses any other browser I've tried, and I've tried a lot of browsers.

In fact, it seems that this new release of FireFox is trying to play catch-up to Opera, yet many of FireFox's "new" features are hailed as brilliant innovations, while Opera has been doing what FireFox can do and more for years now.

In short, Opera kicks the ass of every other browser. :)

[jiZer92]

i tryed firefox 3 used it 1 day then i uninstalled it! OPERA IS THE BEST!

[BTTFreak]

Opera does rock.

I went from IE to Firefox to Opera.

And from Konqueror to Opera.

[frvfilms]

i only used it for a couple days and its kinda laggy compared to firefox/fasterfox.

but after I tweeked it (thanks to youtube) it looks like its faster than fox

love the voice comand!

[DjMati9]

opera 9.5 is nice but i useing firefox

[nec3dg]

FUCK YEAH OPERA

[tomanar]

I have used IE, Firefox, Safari, Konqueror, and then Opera in 2006. I never looked back since. :)

[YouonPictures]

OPERA IS AWESOME, thats all i ever use. IE, and Firefox SUCK!!!

[robotaholic]

I adore Opera! - I'm loving Opera 9.5 beta 2! - mega fast

[brainretain]

opera is the best browser around !

[qwertytura]

Opera Foreva!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[qwertytura]

OPERA FOREVA!!!!

[w0rstn1ghtm4r3]

opera, is actually pretty good

[thepadan]

thank's for all!

[SPYop21]

dang i just found out about opera like a week ago, n i just dowloaded it now, and its pretty good, fast.

[Dafaernir]

My Opera browser is lightning compared to my installed Firefox or Safari ...Opera is the fastest web browser i ever encountered.

The only thing wich i dont like at Opera is the fact that it always wants to open torrent files with the built-in torrent downloader.I just copy/paste in to Firefox and select open with uTorrent ^^

(Sry for my english,its not my native language)

[Kokuraz]

In Opera go to Tools > Preferances > Advanced > Downloads. In the quick search type in Torrent. When you see a listing called "Application/x-bittorrent torrent" click edit and then select the "Open with other application" radio button. Then select the Exe file you want it to launch the torrent in. This will make it automatically use the other program. It works very very fast when you left click it

[cary123]

then your computer sucks

[Enysvar]

Opera has never let me down.

[cary123]

I love oprea but i just wish it had GOOD extensions like firefox :(

[Enysvar]

ha we got widgets

[cary123]

widgets suck man, all they do is lie there, i want the ablity to have it in my browswer not a floting annoynig tool

[Leivonmies]

Yes we have widgets but i think tha cary123 means addons like NoScript for FireFox. I'm using Opera and it works like charm but yah, i wish to that they make real addons.

[enastaciah]

When I first took a sneak peek at my boyfriend's desktop, I was astounded by wtf, he listens to opera? But no LOL, it came out a pure black sexy elegant interface~~ so beautiful and that was when I fell in love with a browser LOL ;P <3 Opera. 've been using it ever since~~

[chavalit94]

i watch this video using opera browser...

[pakedskeezer]

The worse thing might be that all people is going around and thinking that firefox is better than Opera, but that is all wrong, and we know that! :)

[doctorpapahalo3]

Opera is EXTREMELY SLOW! Just get Safari.

[PogonAM]

R U kidding me? Maybe your net conection is slow..certainly not Opera!!

[iadv]

I've been using Opera for more than 10 years, and I couldn't be happier!. Now I'm such a power user of this app, I use the included mail client, feed reader, bittorrent, widgets, have many sidepanels, and even use the notes panel.

[valentinsavin]

Opera is cool!

I love my Opera browser.

[wilhelmrahn]

<3 Opera <3

[angel2901]

[skillet1111]

[MidnitePB]

Great music. What it's name or artist?

[economistBR]

The name of the song is:

Crystal Method - Busy Child

Anyway, Opera rules!!!

[silverwolf10]

I love my Opera browser. It is so much faster than either IE or FF. And way better looking than both of them. Here's to 12 more years!

[booyakasixonenine]

Opera is the BEST!Bill Gates Cocksuckers (IE Users)...... and Firefox is suck myyyyyy........ :)

[virtualspectre8]

I'm so proud to be an Opera user. Opera is the pioneer of so many browser technologies, I wish more people and web sites supported this excelent internet browser... can you hear that Google?????

[xHelljumpersx]

ive never even used opera... besides on wii

[hunner80]

Everybody needs an opera browser! ...or two! :D

[TimePinkRanger]

Long live Opera!

Go, go, Opera! hehehe

[therealmihau]

the best browser in the world -

with the smallest market share in the world.

[ernstroggenbauer]

One of the most awesome videos ever seen on Youtube.

For more 12 years!

[NirvanaKid]

opera is great

internet explorer is shit

[Luoslav]

great video, i love opera

[stormloss]

I wish Youtube made it's self more Opera browser friendly, Opera passes the Acid2 test.

[DMXell]

Hopefully in 2008 we'll see OS integration. Opera in Mac OS X looks worse than an X11 app. Please add in the native carbon theme support and switch the panel mode to drawers for OS X, Opera Software! I tried to have other Mac users use it and they refuse to since it looks so bad.

[Iron84]

opera 9.5 (currently beta), is going to fix that, it'll be so fucking cool.
