Every summer, we are lucky to have a group of interns from around the world to join the Opera team. We asked them how was their experience and these are their stories.

This year we unveiled our new brand identity. It’s more than just a logo shift. It reflects what Opera is really about.

Bridging the gender digital divide can spur knowledge and stimulate social participation among women in Africa, and Opera strives to make this possible with its products in a number of ways.

Reading is empowering. In May this year, Opera launched a partnership with Worldreader to provide a distribution channel for their library of free ebooks through Opera Mini.

Our Chief Technology Officer, Håkon Wium Lie, joined an expedition to map the Southern Pacific Garbage Patch. During the trip he’s been using Opera’s compression technology to stay online and keep us updated.

6. Help us celebrate our 20th anniversary!

To celebrate our 20th anniversary we wanted to feature people across the globe whose lives have been impacted by Opera. Because without you, Opera wouldn’t be here today.

We know student life can be hard and that’s why we brought you our best tips on stretching out your budget with free apps.

9. See what people know about megabytes and phone bills

10. Are you on Instagram? Browse it from your computer, with this extension

When we released sidebar extensions, we wanted to give you some useful tips and examples on how to use this new feature and integrate it with the apps you love, like Instagram and Twitter.
