If you are looking to install Opera Mini on your phone the fastest way is usually through visiting http://m.opera.com/ on it and following instructions there.

This is post on advanced tweaks. :) You don’t have to use these, but functionality is there for techies that want it.

I’ve noticed that I get better Google results on Internet Explorer than the Google on Mozilla Fox.

Google uses history of searches to customize results. Which can sometimes actually do more harm than good. So it depends on how often you use search in each browser and if you are logged in with Google account.

When and if they simplify Opera to merely downloading it then putting the desired info in their search box, I’ll try it.

It currently does exactly that – Google box you can simply use. Go try it. :)

Dang, I started getting a headache reading all those instructions. I didn’t need any instructions to do Google searches. Have tried other search things, like Bing (worthless), ask, (see Bing). I’ve noticed that I get better Google results on Internet Explorer than the Google on Mozilla Fox.

I think it’s great to try, but until this time I’m not yet installed Opera in my PC, I just make firefox the only browser in my comp.

Will learn much more from you.

thank you

People often get feature bloat term wrong. It’s not bloat because of sheer amount of features, it’s bloat when features get in the way of resource consumption and interface usability.

Opera does magnificent work of packing so many features so they don’t get in the way.
