Twitter and Facebook integration

As some of you noticed, My Opera was taken down today for a short period of time to add some new features. We now communicate with the popular social networking services Facebook and Twitter. You can push updates, let everyone know what you are doing right now and My Opera will automatically let the world know when you've written a new blog post or created a new photo album with your favorite pictures. We've also integrated these two services with our very own activity feed.

You can use your Facebook account with My Opera. Once connected, your My Opera status will be displayed on Facebook and integrated with your friends' status.

To connect to Facebook click on "My page", "Social networks", then "Connect to Facebook". Follow the instructions to connect with Facebook.

Some of these settings require permissions on Facebook which you must allow when you connect with the service.

When you disconnect from Facebook all settings are reset and the active functionalities are removed, but the My Opera Facebook application is not removed from your Facebook account. To do so, you must manually remove the application from the "Edit applications" page on your Facebook profile.

You can now share your My Opera activites on Twitter. When you upload a new image or write a new blog post we can push the news to all of your followers on Twitter! In adition, you can view all tweets in My Opera's activity feed (as seen on your "Home" page). Naturally, we'll only share content that is set to "Public".

To use Twitter with My Opera simply go to "My page", choose "Social networks" and click "Connect to Twitter".

Fill in your Twitter username and password and click "Save". Please note: Your Twitter-feed needs to have activity otherwise we can't connect to it. Once you have connected, choose the options you want and click "Save". To disconnect, hit the X button.

Relax! During the next couple of days we'll guide you through more of the new features we've implemented. Have fun exploring the current changes for now!
