Opera 10.0 Browser Released With New Interface

Posted by Michael Larabel on September 01, 2009

The Norwegians at Opera Software have announced the final release of the Opera 10.0 web-browser. This closed-source web-browser that is available for Linux brings three key changes with the 10.0 release: Opera Turbo, a new user-interface, and better tabs support. The Opera Turbo charge feature is a new compression technology that will compress web-pages and is designed to speed up the loading process on slow Internet connections by as much as eight times. Opera 10 also presents "a streamlined and elegant new interface." Opera Software has also revised their tabs support by providing thumbnails of all open tabs and other tweaks.

Other Opera 10 features include an integrated spell checker, automatic updates, a better email client, and underlying improvements. The Opera 10.0 press release can be read here.
