Opera has released version 9.6 of their excellent web browser, for Windows, Linux and MacOS. As always, this very nice browser just keeps getting better. This version is noticeably faster loading pages, which is a pretty good trick because Opera was already very fast. It also has some improvements in web searching and synchronization.

I also like the "Speed Dial" feature, having nine of my most frequently visited web pages easily available and prominently displayed. When I think about it, I wonder why I like Speed Dial so much, when the first thing I do after installing Firefox is remove the Bookmarks Toolbar. Hmm. I suppose it has something to do with prominence and limited quantity.
