Some Assembly Required

Partying amongst network cables

, , ,

In Iceland, my home country, people usually hit the road the first weekend of August and go camping at one of the many outdoor festivals taking place that weekend. Thinking back I see before me tons of people lying in the mud doing some heavy partying. This year I am embarking on a slightly different adventure taking place in Finland. I don't think there will be much mud this time but maybe the mud is just replaced by network cables...

Hmmm, maybe time to get serious! Hello everyone, my name is Gerdur and I got asked to join four of my co-workers from Opera (Balder, Chaals, Christer, and Gorm) to Assembly '06. I have never been there before but I happily accepted the offer.

This blog was created so you guys could get some updates about what is happening around the Opera crew at Assembly. Expect me to give the not-so-serious newcomer account of the event and maybe some of the others can fill in the gaps.

So what is Opera doing at Assembly? Meeting the ones of you there, giving you a chance to try out our cool products, and maybe even trying to recruit you. Now picture me standing there with a finger pointed at you shouting "We want you!". If that isn't enough we are also arranging the Widget competition and sponsoring the Browser demo competition.

So start working on that cool widget of yours and check back regularly for updates to see what is happening and hot. Even better, come and visit our stand! Who knows, we might have something cool like Opera on the Nintendo Ds to show you. And if you are nice to us we might even let you take it for a test drive;)

Only a few days left
