Imitation - the sincerest form of flattery?
Being the "little guy" clearly has its pros and cons. Opera does not write publicly about other browsers interpreting its innovations, but when competitors present themselves as the original creators of some browser features (omg!), well... You know, something's not right, ye?
Anyway, this has been the cause of controversy in blogs and forums lately, and we're not interested in starting a flame war or whine about it (because whining sucks), but it's good to see that you continue to support Opera rightfully for its creativity and passion for evolving the Web. ![]()
