Buying Opera

Blake Ross:
If you’re thinking of investing in Opera, please don’t be mislead into believing my post that Opera is buying itself, which Google Finance is currently running on its Opera investment page. Opera is not—I repeat, NOT—purchasing itself. (Digg/Sun, anyone?)


Actually, Opera could buy back 10% of it's own shares. See item 8 on the Minutes Of The Annual General Meeting of Opera Software ASA. But with the stock currently valued at 35 NOK, and a maximum agreed price of 20 NOK, this will not happen.

You know what's great about Google Finance? The Google developers for this site actually made sure it worked in Opera before launch :smile:

Rijk, you're absolutely right about Google Finance working in Opera. We shouldn't take it for granted.

    Brent Simmons talks about the pain and pleasure of deleting features from your software: I hope it’s self-evident that apps with too much stuff are, in general, bad. And that there are some features whose time has come and gone, and there are features that don’t get used much. When worki ...

  • More about deleting features

    I got an email observing that I was on a minimalism-and-deleting kick — but, thing is, I’m always on that particular kick. It’s not a kick — it’s how I work . Here’s the schizo thing about software development (at least on Macs): 1. Everybody praises apps that don’t have a ton ...

  • iPhone Reconciliation

    It's amusing to see a bunch of people in the tech community having trouble reconciling their love for the iPhone vs. how closed and proprietary it is. It's a real conundrum... The iPhone 3G is the best mobile phone there is, bar none, in both functionality and usability. It's also relatively inexpe ...

  • Mobility Blues

    These days, I’m gloomier and gloomier about the prospects for the mobile Internet; you know, the one you access through the sexy gizmo in your pocket, not the klunky old general-purpose computer on your desk. We’ve all heard about the glowing future; Jonathan is particularly good at telling it; ...

  • Transparent text is transparent

    Firefox 3 added support a new CSS color keyword, transparent . Surprisingly, this broke some sites , many of which had rules like table { color: transparent; } due to a Microsoft FrontPage bug. The strangest part: Firefox wasn't the first major browser to support transparent . Safari was. These ...
