Opera & Skype

Opera
People that don't know me personaly, will probably think, that I'm using web browser Mozilla Firefox (Mofo, or FF) If you would say that two years ago, you would be right. However, my favourite browser is Opera, shes not such known and common, but in my opinion many time usefullier (for personal use). So why everyone uses Mozilla? Reason is simple. Opensource. Every bit advanced user of Windows quickly finds out that Internet Explorer (IE) is a piece of shit. Versions under 7 did not have tabs (for me the most neccesary feature on browsers), version 7 has tabs, but is slow and panels and buttons takes too much space , so there is less space for the page, you are viewing. All this peoples, which left explorer got into trend "windows is for noobz, yaya opensource rullezz!! flower power!" and grabs opensource software Mozilla, becouse many companies recomend it. Google recommends her on every step (with google toolbar for firefox or get firefox for secure browsingetc.) All linuxes have it biult in and people then feel "cool" before that "stupid pcmans with stupid IE" Opera has many advantages and i will write some of them.

- Tabs (Its strange that i must count this but many userts even in this age uses browsers without tabs.)
- Saving of space - compare window of opera and other browser, you will see the difference ;)
- Speed - Opera definitaly the most fastest web browser on the world. (accoarding to many international tests).
- Full screen - after pressing F11 you gets into full screen mode without anything else, then page
- Speed Dial™ - on every new tab you get 9 huge buttons with favourities
- Integrated search - for example when i enter 'g bread' im redirected to google search with keyword bread, when i enter 'i bread' i got images.google of breads when i enter 'w bread' i get wikipedia article about bread (in my home language)and 'we bread' returns wikipedia article about bread in english. On 'en bread' it gives me english translation of this word (of course i will not write 'en bread' but for example 'en chlieb') via internet dictionary.
- Trash Can - There are stored all closed tabs until closing. Like history but much much much effective.
- Wand - Mozilla and IE ask everywhere if you would like to store your login infoprmations, password or other datas. However it never works. In opera yes. just press ctrl+enter and you are logged in.
- Delete private data - rýchlo a jednoducho na pár kliknutí
- Everything others - pop-up blocker, bit torrent client, Fraud protection, Improved rich text editing, Widgets, Thumbnail preview, Transfer manager, Mouse gestures, Keyboard Shortcuts, Notes, Security bar, Cookie control, IRC chat, Drag and drop and Zoom

Opera is maybe not one of most known browsers for PCs but is very frequently found on Mobiles, PDAs or even on Wii.

Of course there is OS X and Linux versions and releases every few months.

Skype
Skype is, (not only) an instant messanger like ICQ, too. I dont like ICQ for its client and several other things and i have all people on Skype, so why use it? This cant be objective revue, i did not used Jabber, AIM, Yahoo and MSN (not counting Meeboo thats something completely other using just their protocol) but i could say that skype is good. Its nice, it works, it has low requirements. what more you want? I will not talk about phoning becouse i dont use it, but based on what i know they are wonderfull. Wanna call on Australian mobile for 20 cents per minute? Use Skype.
