Opera's latest browser release puts the current crop of browsers to shame with the company's swag of new innovations, in addition to an already impressive feature set, of note the introduction of widgets into the browser. The widgets work much like Konfabulator's widgets; however, they seem to be a lot handier.
Widgets are accessible by pressing
or clicking the widgets tab located at the top of your screen (middle). This will display all of your hidden widgets, and let you download more. The currency and measurement converters are particularly useful, but the Pandora widget that delivers customised radio, impressed us.
