Nifty Opera Feature

Power users of Opera already know this, but I've just recently discovered the notes feature in Opera, and am way impressed.

The thing about Notes is you can drag and drop selections of text or whatever into an area of the side Panel called a Note. You can start as many new notes as you like or combine several selections into one note.

For example, in my previous blog post, I highlighted the relevant parts of a blog post I wanted to re-post and dragged them into the panel, after clicking "New Note". I later added a few other bits to the note, including the URL of the original post I was copying.

Then it was over to the blog and after clicking "Add New Post", all I had to do was drag and drop the note's icon into the text area and it was there. Thirty seconds of formatting and it was done.

Very nice!
