Before you can get Internet access? Using a mobile phone as dial up is never a fast or ideal solution. To make it even worse, your connection point is out of reach. What do you do? You hang it up using a string. Hopefully Opera Turbo will serve the Web pages pretty fast...

More news from the Campus Crew, Opera’s campus representatives program for people passionate about spreading the word about Opera!

Last weekend, the Campus Crew branch at Krisnadwipayana University in Indonesia held a presentation attended by 30 people. One member happens to be a lecturer there in computing and multimedia.

The event was opened by the head of the informatics engineering department, and followed with an

introduction to the Campus Crew. The main topics at the presentation were Opera and its products, ‘Open the Web’, search engines and a closer look at Opera Mini. Well done, Risanto and Ragil!

Also from Indonesia this week, Adhy from the Campus Crew at Mahardika Vocational High School in Makassar installed Opera on 20 computers in their lab. Opera Software is sending him posters to make sure everyone in the lab knows that their new favourite browser is now available.

Russia, Altai State Technical University, campus crew, Gunadarma University ...

The Opera Campus Crew is powering ahead, with more events in universities around the world! Right before Christmas, the Campus Crew at Gunadarma University in Indonesia hosted an Opera Mini presentation. The event was attended by 39 students, and both the presentation and Opera Mini received really positive feedback from the crowd. There was also a lot of interest among the audience to join the Campus Crew

. Congratulations to Gunadarma University on a fantastic event!

Also, in the end of November the Opera Campus Crew at Altai State Technical University in the Russian Federation helped organise the semi-final of the International Collegiate Programming Contest for the Association of Computer Machinery (ACM). 50 student teams competed in the event. Opera Software sponsored the event by providing Opera shirts for members of the technical team and organising committee, and as prizes for the top four winning student teams competing.
The Campus Crew also used it as an opportunity to hang up Opera posters in computer labs, and install Opera on all the computers they could find. Great initiative!

Well done, Campus Crew! Keep up the good work!
