    When was the last time you used the Opera browser on your Mac? Never? Well if you're a fan of beautiful bookmarks, you might want to consider changing that for Opera 25. The new Opera update brings with it something the company calls Visual Bookmarks, which are essentially large icons pointing you to your favorite sites, complete with accompanying images. "When I think back on moments, I can see them. That's my way to remember," Opera's Zhenis Beisekov writes on the company's blog. "It's the same for how I find things on the internet. All those videos, pictures or songs that I've discovered are visual memories for me." That's the idea behind the new, prettier bookmarks. If you want to give Opera 25 a spin you can download it now directly from the announcement post, and feel free to sound off about the new tweaks below.

    Even though Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox and Safari are what most people use to browse the web on their desktops or laptops, this hasn't managed to lower Opera's spirits one bit. And that's definitely a great thing for people who prefer the Opera desktop browser over the aforementioned alternatives from Microsoft, Mozilla, Google and Apple, respectively. Today, Opera 25 is being introduced for Mac and Windows, which features bookmarking options that are highlighted by image-heavy thumbnails -- it's similar to what Safari's Top Sites window does in the browser nowadays, only with slightly different purpose.
