Opera Campus Crew Blog

What’s new in 4.2 beta?
• Opera Mini users in the Americas and Asia-Pacific region can now experience faster speed, due to the addition of an Opera Mini server park in the US. Users in the rest of the world will also experience faster page downloads because of the reduced the load on our other servers.
• Personalise your Opera Mini with a cool selection of new skins, available in six colours (see below).
• Improved support on more phones for YouTube and other mobile video services. If you have a new Sony-Ericsson or Nokia phone, the chance is high that you can take Opera Mini for a spin on m.youtube.com.
• The handy Notes functionality from the Opera Desktop Web browser just got more portable through Opera Link. All of your notes are available in Opera Mini directly from the Bookmarks menu.

Install Opera Mini 4.2 beta to test out the new version, and to explore the new features so you can get ready to show it to your friends and fellow students as part of your Opera Campus Crew activity!

Spreading the word on campus
Stay tuned to this blog for an announcement in a few weeks of a Campus Crew initiative to promote Opera Mini to coincide with the release of the final version of 4.2. We will be encouraging you to organise Demo Days and meet-ups on your campus soon after the release, so the announcement will include more information and resources for organising these events. In the meantime, you can check out the Get Started Guide for tips, and brainstorm ideas on the Opera Mini forum.
