Multi-platform browser vendor Opera Software today released a Web-based synchronization service said to share Opera browser information among desktops, mobile phones, and other devices. With Opera Link, says Opera, bookmarks, speed dial, and personal bar are all kept updated, thereby reducing tedious text input.

Opera Link is supported by two beta browsers also released today: Opera 9.5 and Opera Mini 4. Opera claims its Mini browser is the world's most popular mobile Web browser.

Synchronization is available across multiple OS platforms, but it is currently limited to bookmarks, speed dial, and personal bar. Opera says that future versions will synchronize other browser settings.
