eHarmony Blog.com

In the past three months, only 0.82% of eHarmony Blog’s visitors use Opera and, for us here, this statistic is terrible. Opera is, in our opinion, the fastest and, for many users, the best Internet browser in the world.

We want to know what you guys are missing out. Browsing eHarmony on Opera is one of the best things you can start doing today:

• Opera displays eHarmony pages faster than the popular browsers.
• Opera has unlimited back and forward buttons. You can click < -Back and Forward-> forever and you will never see “Warning: Page has Expired.” Whatever you typed but still haven’t submitted will still be there, even if your eHarmony login expires. No more yelling at your computer.
• Opera’s “Notes” feature can store your replies to the canned 1st and 2nd questions for quick pasting. You can also use the Notes feature to jot down notes about your matches.
• Opera has a built-in email client. Though we don’t use this email client to send emails, we turned “email notification” on. Hmm, we reply back to our matches instantly without switching to another program. If we use hotmail, we leave a hotmail tab open and turn on “Reload every five minutes.”
• Opera reopens the webpages you had open the way you left. Opera starts faster than Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox.
• Opera’s one-click “Wand” feature remembers our passwords on eHarmony.
• Built-in spell-checker is installable
• Mouse gestures. Our favourite is the rocker, i.e., rightclick + leftclick to go back a previous page.
• Undo close tabs, i.e., restore tabs you have closed, with their page histories intact.
• “Top 10″ remembers our ten most visited pages.
• Rearrangeable tabs.
• Full page zoom.

Fans like us fondly remember Opera’s numerous innovations (Opera’s firsts) since 1994: tabbed browsing, full page zoom, sessions, search aliases, clear private data, mouse gestures, search integrated in the interface, popup blocking and fast forward. When other browsers announce features and call their browsers revolutionary, we say, “Hohum, Opera had that two years ago.”1

Readers, you have a choice. Keep using your current browser, waiting for pages to load, OR switch now.
