BTW the "Ugly code" rule, does that mean that OperaUnite applications built in Java are not allowed?

go to File->Import and export
After you finish you import, set up your opera link, so you will have your bookmarks wherever you will be.

Also, c'mon devs! I'm still waiting to have some sort of game server! There you got an idea, now go!
k. talat muskara # 29. October 2009, 17:07
and have been using the net from 1998) I really like the Idea of Opera
Unite but the security issues and who will do the indexing of these Unite users
are the largest barriers to this service.
Please focus on these issues.

P.S. It would be nice to have a one button back-up from Opera blogs,
albums, etc.etc..to the users hard drive and if the user wants to move
this to Opera Unite, keeping the dates and format.
