Opera Software University Tours

Total number of listeners was about 140+, and as well as in previous universities we had a lot of interesting questions about web-standards, new technologies and Opera inside information. But first of all we awarded the widget competition winner. Just one. And unfortunately, he was absent at the meeting by a few reasons. Our Campus Crew member will keep the prize for him.

Evening before the train we had a very nice community meet-up in the "Dobriy El" pub. Tons of questions, most of them - technical. Actually, russian users are interested in three main parts: technical questions, Opera company life and when the Opera 10 and Opera Mini 5 will be released. Good questions, guys, I hope you have a lot more knowledge about Opera after this meeting.



It was a very nice evening, but the midnight train already wait us - we should go to the next city.

Krasnodar, May 15

Final city of our university tour had met us with a lot of interesting widgets from Kuban State Technological University students. Winners - two guys who prepared 5 separate widgets and another one that include all functionality of these widgets. Cool work, good realisation - good prizes as result. We had about 170+ attendees at this seminar and it was really interested listeners. Especially - because KubSTU have a lot of talented students. After this seminar we had the community meet-up at the "Pivnaya #1" pub and we had chance to see a very cool work based at JavaScript prepared by one of the students. Also traditionally we had a lot of questions and discussions about internet and future browsers. And, of course, good discussion is impossible without good beer.



Well, uni tour is finished. And we have a good results:
- 690+ attendees;
- A few very good widgets related to education process;
- Good plans for the next stage of interaction with the universities;

And, I hope, a lot of new Opera users.
