Opera 10.10 Released!


Windows/Mac/Linux: Opera's out with a 10.10 final release, and this one includes the Opera Unite personal media server. A few other features, like built-in BitTorrent, make Opera 10.10 worth a look.
Unite is an intriguing step forward for Opera, bringing an entirely new sub-set of powers to a platform that's already known for its built-in email client and FTP package. While some may question why you'd use a browser-to-browser connection to share pictures, videos, documents, or chat in the age of ubiquitous web services that do the same or similar things, Opera's always been about doing things a bit differently. And if you want a better sense of security, it's best to let your own system do the sharing, rather than another firm's servers.
Opera 10.10 is a free download for Windows, Mac, and Linux systems.
Just go check www.opera.com for it.
