About the author
Introduction
Welcome to the small world of Opera web browser. This book is not intended to be a user guide of Opera or a tour to get started. This book doesn't teach you how to use a web browser to go to a website. But this book is all about using the existing features on the browser to its maximum. This book is intended to speed up your web browsing experience by intelligent use of features. Most people are aware of many features in a web browser but rarely use them. To be honest I am also a member of that most
. In this book I share the issues I faced while browsing Internet and features in Opera that helps to overcome those. In a nutshell this is a no nonsense guide to speed up the Internet browsing experience from a practical user perspective. I have covered the not so widely used search options, different techniques to navigate web pages, browsing in a slow or public environment and an introduction to developer options. I hope this book will present you a new view about using features in your web browser.
Coming to Opera, it has two different interfaces for Windows users. The minimalistic single menu and the traditional menu bar.

tmp_e71788789d526bf9f9713edac89c978f_yIQaTz_html_c1d3323.jpgThe menus minimalistic approach are mentioned as Opera > throughout the book. This book is based on version 12 of Opera but most features mentioned in this book are there in Opera for years. This book doesn't cover the Linux version of Opera. But almost all features mentioned in this book are applicable to Linux version also.

"So I say to you, Ask and it will be given to you; search, and you

Quick searches can make your journey on the web easier and efficient. Anyone who spends a lot of time on Internet prefers quick, easy and effective searches.

It provides many search options not just with search engines but on webpages as well. This section explains how shortcuts in Opera can make search more productive and streamlined.

Almost everyone's day on the internet starts with a search. I use to search multiple search sites like Wikipedia, Amazon or Ebay other than Google. Opera has nice trick to save time by
