Opera Outperforms Again

With the latest builds of Opera, another ability is released to the public, that no other browser allows (this is getting to be a habit, for those not paying attention).
For the Opera user, there  have been many little applets, which Opera calls Widgets. The Widgets are much like the applets originally released in the product [...]

Mozilla & Microsoft, Strange Bedfellows, Stranger Allies

You know things are getting weird when Microsoft and Mozilla agree on anything. After all, one is a closed source developer, the other is open source. The one uses bullying tactics and sheer market drive to push its browser, the other has used an appeal of quality to the prospective users.

Mozilla Keeping Tabs On Your Usage

Users of Firefox and Thunderbird, take note, you can no longer slam Microsoft for its practices of having applications phone home with statistics.
