We all love the Gmail interface and its white background color but how would it be if the whole Gmail look was transformed in to black? It would certainly look great isn’t it? I really love screens with dark backgrounds. It is really helpful for people like me who sit for long hours in front of their pc. Dark screens will result in less strain to your eyes. I have set my Opera theme, desktop wallpaper, Gmail look and many other things to black.
I have been using Opera from the past two years and I feel it’s a great browser. I wanted to use Opera Mini in my cell phone but unfortunately for some reason it never worked. Today I came across an awesome article which allows you to run Opera Mini on your PC! Now the question is why would anyone use Opera Mini when there’s Opera browser for PC. Well, the answer is simple, if you have a slow internet connection like 56k internet connection or lesser then you’re benefited from this. Using Opera Mini you can load web pages way faster than any other browser.
1. Mouse gestures:
This extensions allows you to execute common commands like page forward/backward, close tab, new tab,etc by mouse gestures drawn over the current webpage, without reaching for the toolbar or the keyboard. You can also use click-only “rocker” gestures which are even faster than drawn gestures.
2. ColorfulTabs:
The most beautiful yet the simplest add-on that makes a strong colorful appeal. Colors every tab in a different color and makes them easy to distinguish while beautifying the overall appearance of the interface.
The round “Auto Scroll” icon is sometimes really annoying, especially when you try to middle click on a link and you miss it. The page starts moving and scrolling by itself. Well, if you don’t like it then there’s a way to disable it. You can do so by going to Options> Advanced> and then uncheck “Use autoscrolling” box as shown below.
Firefox no doubt is the most widely used browser but it has a small drawback, it takes a lot of time to load. Even if you have a Core2Duo and 2GB RAM it will take a little bit of time to load. Well, the fact is that even Opera and IE loads faster than Firefox. Luckily, we have a great Windows app- Firefox Preloader which loads some parts of Firefox into memory before it is used to improve startup speed. You can also manage different Firefox versions with this app.
Here’s a small trick which helps you to open a website without using a browser. Now you might be wondering if this is really possible. Well it is. You can do so by going to the help section in notepad, calculator or any other similar application. Here’s how you do it:
1. Open notepad.
2. Go to the Help section and Click Help Topics.
Firefox is one of the most widely used internet browsers in the world. Firefox’s tab feature makes it easy to have access to many sites in different tabs rather than opening them in different windows.
