From Wired News:
When he reads the glowing stories detailing the wonders of the fledgling Firefox web browser, Jon von Tetzchner can’t help but wonder why his own baby is so often ignored.
Von Tetzchner is the CEO of Opera Software, maker of the Opera web browser. In the sort of grand comedic tragedy that echoes its name, Opera went from spending almost a decade as Internet Explorer’s understudy to getting an occasional polite mention in the cavalcade of media attention currently being directed at the new superstar — Mozilla’s Firefox browser.
But the show ain’t over till the fat lady sings. And Opera intends to put on a grand performance this year with a fresh version of its browser, new offices in North America and Asia, an expanded public relations campaign and an increasing emphasis on becoming the browser of choice for entertainment and mobile devices.
