A Splash of Fame

So Opera did it to me again :yes: being an Opera user i got the chance to be interviewed by Li Yuan a news reporter from Wall Street Journal :cool:

She asks a lot of question about why do i like opera mini etc etc, now the article is online as Daniel mentions on =Opera Watch

this is my quote :
"My browsing tends to be on my phone," says Ryan Octavianus, a 22-year-old college student in Bandung, Indonesia. He says it takes about three to six seconds to load a photo-laden Web page from social-networking site Friendster on his Nokia cellphone using the Opera Mini -- much faster than the 30 seconds it takes on his PC at home.

and yes i mention about Opera Community too, i mentioned friendster because currently it's very huge in Indonesia and South East Asia, so the users are a market for Opera.

you can read the articlehere

and another great news that my final project is accepted by my professor :yes: finnaly college days will be over.. I mentioned about this article to my professors too and they're quite ecited :yes: It would excite them more if it mentions that i'm currently a student in theFaculty of Information Technology at Maranatha Christian University :p so i'll just mention it here.

and they say if I need a place for Opera Events i can do it there :yes: not many of my colleague students uses Opera though :(

Thanks Opera! Thanks toThomas Ford for offering the chance at the Choose Operagroup and Opera Community :yes: and Thanks Li Yuan from Wall Street Journal

:lol: i'm acting like i won an award or something :p so this is my share of 15 minutes of fame... will i get more? :p
