What is Opera?

Question: What is Opera?

Answer: Opera is an Internet browser that you can use instead of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. It has features such as tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, and voice commands. Tabbed browsing is convenient because it allows you to have several web pages open in the same browser window instead of having several browser windows open. Mouse gestures are a new feature that will perform certain functions by holding a button down on a mouse and then moving the mouse. An example would be if you want to go back to the previous page, hold the right mouse button down, move the mouse to the left, and then release the right mouse button. Voice commands are similar to mouse gestures, they will allow you to do certain functions such as close the window, go back, go forward, and to your home page. These are just some of the features that are offered when using the Opera browser.
