Jon von Tetzchner, CEO of Opera Software, and Geir Ivarsøy began to create original web browser for desktop systems in April 1994. Today, the Opera browser has running on Windows, Mac and Linux using about 40 million people.
Fifteen years ago, they were scientists in research laboratories of the company, now known as Telenor. The first line of code then turned in Opera, the world famous web browser, a different functionality and performance.
The first release of Opera included the use of tabs to download and view multiple Web pages in a single browser window. In 2001, the company has proposed an instrument Opera Mouse Gestures, which improved the navigation of the network. Speed Dial System, allowing to quickly opening the sites with the main browser pane, and a mechanism to synchronize Opera Link considerably simplify the work with bookmarks, regardless of what device is used to access the network. All this has given impetus to the development of new functionality browsers.
This year the company introduced the technology of Opera Turbo, which allows you to compress the contents of Web pages and upload them quickly, even with low speed internet connections.
