Meet Opera in Johannesburg!

September 16, 2010 · by Aleksander Aas

Opera Software’s esteemed co-founder Jon von Tetzchner will be in Johannesburg, South Africa, later this month for the Mobile Web in Africa conference. As well as captivating audiences at the conference, talking all things Opera with journalists and meeting local web groups, Jon will be hosting a community meet-up… and we hope you will come along!

Come join us for a casual evening of discussions and drinks on Wednesday 29 September from 7pm at News Café in Sandton (Cnr Gwen Lane & Fredman Drive, Sandown, Sandton). You can email us to let us know you will be there (so we know how big a table to book) and then we can send you a reminder a few days beforehand.

See you in Joburg!

A bit too far.
Africa's internet connections are probably not very fast, so Opera's features (Mini and Turbo) may gain love in that markets.
