Jon S. von Tetzchner in Akihabara

Monday, 5. November 2007, 22:47:13

, , ,

A little while back, Opera's CEO Jon S. von Tetzchner visited Japan and spent some time in Akihabara, Tokyo's world-famous electronics and otaku hotspot (I talk about Akihabara a little bit in the following article: Infornographic Design).

Mycom ( http://journal.mycom.co.jp/ ) covered that visit, and they just published an article about it (in Japanese): http://journal.mycom.co.jp/articles/2007/11/05/opera/index.html

I'm sure my colleagues at Choose Opera Japan will post an English-language summary of the article shortly, but until then, enjoy the photos of Jon in Akihabara.

Yeah, somehow I am not convinced about this translation :D


Opera 8 is a four-day, 100 million downloads to achieve, when you are swimming in cold fjord.


I thought Opera was a browser p:

Crossing my fingers for a translation/summary.

    On July 6th, 1998, serial experiments lain debuted on Japanese television. Ten years later, the show's legacy endures and it continues to inspire new audiences who discover it.

  • Lawmune's Netspace turns 10

    Ten years ago today, on June 23rd, 1998, this website (" Lawmune's Netspace ") went live.

One thing I didn't mention there is that I helped Lillian Olsen (my good friend and fellow con guest) with the multimedia clips she showed during her Classic Anime panel. She promised that I'd post links to the clips here on my blog, so here they are: Magical ...
