Hitslink just updated their numbers to include weight by country! From August first the stats will reflect the actual marketshare in regards to the population and Internet availability in the countries listed. This is super news for Opera and Opera fans!
Opera will rise significantly due to this. In Hitslink's own words:
This reflects the significant share they [Opera] have in Eastern Europe and Asia.
The search engine Baidu also gets a well earned bump in the stats.
Check out the pictures from the Tweetup in San Fransisco! The first Opera Tweetup in the United States!

AT&T recently wrote a review on Opera for their costumers, recommending both the Opera browser and Opera Mini!
While there are other web browsers out there, few stand out in terms of integration and functionality like Opera can. This is why the Opera web browser is fast gaining popularity. More and more people are turning to this browser for safer Internet surfing.
They got excited about the built in features like the pop-up blocker, keyboard shortcuts, email client, integrated searches and security of Opera. They also pick the "Shift+Ctrl+Left Click" shortcut (Open link in new background tab) as one of their favorites!
