Choice, is a good thing. This one lets you scream at your web browser. :)

Opera Software has released a beta of its next browser, version 8.0, for the Linux platform on Thursday, following December's release of the Windows version.

This new version of Opera features voice technology that allows users to browse the Web and check their email using spoken commands. By using the appropriate command Web users can make scroll around a Web page, read highlighted text out loud and follow links.
