Our earlier widget competition at The Gathering went off so well, we just HAD to start another one. We had some truly amazing entries and we felt terrible that not everyone could win. Well, if you've missed your chance at that last competition, you now have a bunch of new chances to win stuff.
The fine people at Think Geek have even hooked us up with some sweet prizes.
The top prize is actually sooo good, we just can't tell you what it is yet (doesn't suspense just KILL you?)
For more information and rules on how to enter, head on over to the Opera Widgets blog.

Congratulations to Tamil for winning the Guess How Many Members competition.
We still have a few more days till the Nokia 770 competition ends. Be sure to send in your submissions!

Today's winner is Jezza with the answer of:
He was going to stop in Iceland to visit his Mum for a cup of Hot Chocolate, but he probably really needed to stop to give the communications director in the boat with him a rest.
