Gather up with the vikings

development, widgets, opera, the gathering, demoscene

I like to call myself a demo scener Although the few releases I've done during my active scener life are laughable, I like to stay in touch with the demo scene, watch demos, chat with old friends and have a good time. I normally enjoy smaller computer parties where the scene is more in focus, but after being absent from the Gathering for a few years, I've been there the two past years and the scene seems to be increasing in focus. I will be attending this year too, this time as an Opera representative.

I'm not sure how it happened but a collegue and myself have for a long time believed that Opera Software belonged as a contributor to the Gathering. The creative spirit that hovers in the Viking ship in Hamar during Easter is inspiring, just like Opera's innovative products. A lot of power users and creative minds deserve to get to know Opera's products better, and the company is privileged to meet many potential employees.

Opera will have a stand where we show our technology, hold contests, talk to whoever is interested and hopefully be inspired and inspiring others.

Among other things there will be a widgets competition. By developing a widget and submitting it either to the booth or to widgetcomp@opera.com you'll not only be able to gain fame when users download and use your widget, but also win a computer setup from Digital Impulse. -- Oh and it must be in before Saturday at 16:00 PM CET, so no point in hesitating
