Web Standards Hoedown

Last week the entire Opera Developer Relations team gathered in Oslo. These guys and girls live, breath and love web standards. When it's time for a relaxing Banjo session it's no surprise what the topic is

Video on YouTube

In the video you can see Andreas Bovens on Banjo, Daniel Davis on ukulele, Chris Mills doing vocals and desk percussion and a pink hair Bruce Lawson on guitar.

For those who are easily offended by the F-Bomb that Bruce drops right at the start, there's now a radio edit version, in full HD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Uir2MGC8g8

I've also added (original and clean) captions to the videos. Enjoy :)

I can't believe I used to go to school right by the Opera building. Never heard any hoe downs from there though!

And what makes you say that? People are doing their job and they're doing it great. If they implement new features, it sure does not mean they neglect fixing bugs. Trolling does not help.

Stop being a fool. These guys aren't even developers.

Do you really think people should be working 24 hours a day? That there's no spare time? You are a moron.
