    Been using Opera for years. Excellent browser. I've tried Firefox but it doesn't do what I want on it's own and anytime you update the extensions don't seem to work.

    Can never figure why Opera isn't more popular. First with tabs, sessions, mouse gestures, real full screen and many other goodies, all in a nice small package.

    I switched to Opera after the IE and FireFox updates a couple months ago. I hardly use FireFox for anything any longer, and don't use IE for anything unless it's on Microsoft's site.

    Hey Lilbit, where's this dictionary you were talking about in Opera?

    Thanks.

    Dictionary? The only dictionary I use is the old fashioned book kind sitting on my desk!

    I still haven't even played with the 'widgets' on Opera.

    I do periodically use one of the online ones if I am looking to post something on here with a long definition though.

    I thought you had mentioned one in Opera, on the Answers thread.

    I ve been looking and hadn't found it! Lol, no wonder.

    Sorry if I confused you!

    I don't even get that button showing up when I use Opera. I use my kid's laptop sometimes, and use FireFox on there, and I get that button.

    Well for a New Years resolution, maybe I should start paying attention!

    That would last for about a 1/2 day or less.

    So expect more stupid posts from me in 2009. Lol
     
    Lilbit Thanks this.
