How about some Opera-tan cake?

Sunday, 27. May 2007, 08:06:56

From what I've heard via the Internet, the Opera off-line meeting was held at Tokyo on 26th May 2007. It was the first and historical meeting that involved Opera Software in Japan. Amazingly, CEO Tetzchner ( we call him "Tetz-chan" as friendly nickname. I corrected spelling refered to this article ) joined the meeting via skype video chat.

I really wanted to attend the meeting, but I couldn't. All I can do is reading some reports about it with jealousy. One of the participants, Saito-san posted the article about the meeting to his blog. You can read it in English.

Although I couldn't join the meeting, "Opera-tan" did. I drew an image for the event. TERRAZI, who is the main coordinator of the event, printed it on a big A1 paper for the poster! The image is available also for you. You can use it as a cake decoration...

Thank you. I always worry about inconstancy of the character. Actually I'm not an expert at such kind of illustration. Anyway I'm glad you like it.

>Saito-san
I'll go back to Japan within a year. If circumstances allow, I hope to meet you and the others who care about me.

"Tetz-chan"

Great to see some reports/comments on this event in English. A lot of people "over here" love Japan, and using machine translation all the time can get tiring.

I love the new image! I'm so happy to see photos of Opera-tan at the Tokyo office. Keiki, my colleague in Tokyo, sent me one of the posters which I will be hanging in my office here in San Diego.
