Opera Events

Opera's Vyoma Kapur went personally back to her hometown in Singapore and hosted a Web Standards Conference in the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) last Tuesday, 16th Jan. 2007. This was the first time ever Opera had done something in Southeast Asia. With more than 100 people present, we exceeded the target of 70 attendees .

There were two speakers- Lucian Teo from the Web Standards Group, Singapore and Michael Smith from Opera, Japan. Lucian gave an introduction to Web Standards and its state in Singapore. Michael explained the Web Standards situation with really interesting analogies. He also showed Opera's commitment to Open Standards and a demonstration of the browser.
