Opera: The media=all of the industry!

March 22, 2010 · by Haavard

I think Molly just came up with a new slogan for Opera:

"Opera: The media=all of the industry!"

Originally posted by Molly:

Opera on your desktop, your phone, in your truck, on your Wii and coming soon: television. We are the media="all" of the industry.

For some background, look up CSS Media Types: "all - Suitable for all devices."

Since Opera probably runs on more types of platforms, devices and operating systems than any other browser, this slogan seems fitting for Opera. Geeky, but fitting.

    Wouldn't the Wii == Television in this case?

    I think they are talking about IPTV boxes that use Opera.

    There is nothing wrong with your devices.

    Do not attempt to adjust the visuals.

    We are controlling transmission.

    If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper.

    We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical.

    We can roll the image, make it flutter.

    We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity.

    For the next session, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear.

    We repeat: there is nothing wrong with your devices.

    You are about to participate in a great adventure.

    You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... Opera's Limits.

    Please Stand By....

    The Wii is a gaming console, not a TV.
