Espen André Øverdahl - Hey everyone, I'm going to China

Hey everyone, I'm going to China

Monday, December 6, 2010 6:36:29 PM

We are looking to find and hire our next Community Mananger for Opera in China. Kei and I will travel to our office in Beijing to perform interviews with some promising candidates. I am really looking forward to the trip as I've never been in Asia. Has anyone of you been to Beijing or the district around? Got any travel recommendations? I won't have time to do a lot of sightseeing, but I'm hoping to squeeze in (pun intended, China has the highest population in the world) at least a day of tourism.

I've also been practicing my Chinese. I think I'm on the right track:

China has a >40% IE6 market share! Your work is highly needed!

Yeah, the total IE market share is pretty close to 90% in China! There are a lot of IE shells too - basically IE with a different skin. I think we should be able to increase the market share significantly in China. At least we have the color (red) in our favor.
