New Vivaldi browser aims to win over power users

There's a new browser aiming to win the hearts and minds of power users. Called Vivaldi, the Chromium-based browser comes from a team led by Jon von Tetzchner, co-founder and former CEO of Opera Software. Vivaldi is available now as a technical preview (https://vivaldi.com/) for Windows, Mac, and Linux.</p><p>
The overall look of Vivaldi is a mix of a classic browser UI and the more sparse, modern interpretations in browsers like Chrome and Microsoft's upcoming Spartan (http://www.pcworld.com/article/2873432/microsoft-shows-early-sketchy-build-of-spartan-browser.html). In the upper left corner, you have a small menu button; below that the address bar with home, back, forward and refresh buttons to its left. There is also a left sidebar for quick access to browser features such as bookmarks, contacts, downloads, and notes. At the very bottom of the sidebar is a settings icon for quick access to your browser's preferences.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2875977/new-vivaldi-browser-aims-to-win-over-power-users.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
