If you use Opera on your cell phone or on different computers with different operating systems, the Synchronize feature will help you to always use the ‘same’ browser: bookmarks, history, speed dial and even notes are synchronized across all platforms. I find this especially useful when working under Linux and going back to XP.

There’s a minor drawback: in the World Wide Web you will still – once in a while – find a website Opera will not render correctly, and some websites will not accept it and ask you to switch to a modern browser. A rare incident though.

Opera is what you call a browser suite, a combination of several modules that work out of the box immediately. If you want to hit a bunch of birds with one stone, Opera is the solution.
