Opera – The Alternative Web Browser to IE and Firefox?

There’s hope if you’re in despair with your clunky FireFox and havn’t quite found it in you to give IE another chance. There’s Opera.

It was amazingly quick to download, install and get going. The whole process leaves you with an impression that it’s lightweight and efficient. Once you fire up the browser, it has a fresh feel about it, in addition to providing a fast browsing experience even when there are a good number of tabs open.

Most of us have loved Firefox since the day it saved us from Internet Explorer. It’s always surfed like a dream but in the last few months, it seems to have got more sluggish and even closed down a few times. When you have 20 to 30 tabs open across a few windows and your browser decides to crash, you tend to blame the browser, although you probably shouldn’t have that many open in the first place.

Like it or not, when a brand doesn’t keep up to it’s perfect past performance, such as Tiger Woods, there may be irreparable repercussions.

We’ll all still use FireFox but it has lost one of the ultimate pillars of its brand to us – namely, that ‘there was no need to look for an alternative’. When it crashes on you more than once, there’s a need.
