Opera became famous (and somewhat notorious) for its Multiple Document Interface (MDI); that is, all browser windows were opened in the same parent window.
Opera also has a presentation mode which allows the use of a single source document for large-screen presentations and web browsing (document parts relevant for the presentation are marked up in a special fashion).
And in Germany and Sweden, Opera was at 3.37 percent and 1.8 percent respectively, having grown from a 1.3 percent and.5 percent usage share in January 2001.

 Browser History: Opera
By the end of 1995 Opera Software was created after Telenor had allowed the pair to continue development of the browser on their own.
Opera was written from scratch - it is not based on the NCSA Mosaic code or interface methodology (as Internet Explorer or Netscape are.) This gives it some unique browsing features such as page zoom, a multi-document interface browsing environment and mouse gestures.
Opera's approach thus far has been to aim for as much standards compliance as possible while also embracing many non-standard authoring features.

 The world's first trade union web browser - from Opera and LabourStart
By a trade union web browser, we mean one which has specific features built-in that make it more useful for trade unionists than an ordinary browser.
Opera has a policy of not discouraging trade union membership among its employees, some of whom are trade union members, which makes sense as it is based in Norway -- a country with one of the highest rates of trade union density in the world.
At the present time, none of the three major browsers are made by unionized workforces, though we hope that Opera will be the first to have a recognized union.
