The perfect candidate has the ability to explain complex technology in simple terms, possibly with a humorous and light touch. Your background is not important as long as you have strong English writing skills.
How to join
To join the competition you need to write an article in 400 words about innovation in technology, you also have to include at least one Opera browser innovation in the article.

This week we've used the hammer of justice quite frequently on My Opera. More than 100 accounts has been banned and a large number of offensive content has been removed. The accounts were primarily banned due to violations of our terms of service. There has been extensive abuse of our internal messaging system (PM) and we've removed a lot of sexual content. In addition, we've locked and closed many photo albums and sent warnings to users who have been posting offensive content.
We will continue to remove this kind of content and make My Opera a nice place for you to stay in. 
We are working hard to keep My Opera clean, so for the next release of My Opera there will be a report feature you can use to notify us on offensive content. This will greatly ease moderation on My Opera.
Should you at any point find content that is not suitable for the My Opera Community you should always report this to the moderators so that we are able to remove it as soon as possible! Either use the contact forum or send a private message to a moderator. All reports will be investigated!
Here are some statistics on content we've removed and closed this week:
