Merlin: Opera 9

Opera is continually being updated and improved. While Opera 8.5 was released just a few weeks ago, work is well underway withthe next incarnation, codenamed Merlin. And I expect it to work its magic as the name implies – if only in the sense “Any science advanced enough will seem like magic” (who was it that said that, by the way?)

From time to time we read some small snippets by the developers about this browser – but when can we expect it to be released? I have no idea – but someone is obviously testing the internal build, because in my web log today I found that someone have paid me a (short) visit with a browser that identified itself as Opera 9! 🙂

Of course, that someone is testing an internal build doesn’t mean that it is anywhere near a public release, but it’s a nice little reminder – should we ever need it – that Opera ASA is constantly improving its browser so that we get the best possible experience out of it. And it is a bit titillating to see the entry, teasing me with a promise of what is to come. 😉

I have too many interests for my own good, in that I don't manage to make time for them all. A bit artistic, which can be seen to a degree. View all posts by Svein Kåre
