I thought Opera went to webkit, or is Blink just another term for webkit ?
WebKit is a branch of the KDE open source project, and so is Blink.
Google and Opera decided not all that long ago to split from WebKit, and
called their engine-version Blink. Although right now we can hardly
distinguish Blink from WebKit, over time differences will start to show up.
For instance a differnt way to test out new solutions, where WebKit
based browsers probably will continue to use vendor-specific extensions
that we web coders can choose to use. Blink based browsers OTOH have
started to incorporate tests of new solutions in a way that lets the
individual end-user decide if s/he want to try them out or not -- fewer
and fewer vendor-specific extensions for us coders to use and worry
about in Blink.
In addition to differences between WebKit and Blink showing up, I have
also observed minor differences between Blink-implementations in Google
Chrome and Opera. Whether or not that over time will lead to another
engine-split, is too early to tell.

Georg
