junky-opera.pngOnly recently Opera announced that they were going to reinvent the web. We all wondered what this could mean. Opera 10 was already in public preview, so surely it couldn't be a new version of this browser. If it had been, it was poor PR. Luckily for us all it's a brand new way of handling your media files with other web users. Opera were one of the first browser developers to add BitTorrent support to the browser. This enable you to download files more quickly from the Internet. The next stage is to enable you to share your files.

Opera Unite for Windows and for Mac (Linux version also available) have been released as a public preview through Opera Labs. Unite is technology that enables you to add various modules to your browser. These modules include the facility to share files, host and share your photos and even setup your browser as a web server. Remember though, you have to keep your computer running in order to provide the files to other users.
