Lighting up Times Square: Opera fans honored on ABC’s SuperSign this New Year’s Eve

Opera Software today announced that one lucky Opera user will have his or her face on the gigantic ABC SuperSign in New York’s Times Square on New Year’s Eve. In honor of its dedicated fanbase, Opera has chosen this high profiled venue to celebrate its community of users. Nearly one million party-goers will witness Opera’s supersized fan tribute on the 585 square foot (54 square meter) screen.

All Opera users have the opportunity to be spotlighted, with one lucky user chosen. They simply have to send their photograph to Opera, along with the reason why they think they deserve to be featured on the big screen.

“Opera owes everything to the millions of devoted Opera users around the world, and we want to finish our 10th year with a big splash to thank them,” says Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. “I hope 2005 will be remembered, not as the year of my overly optimistic attempt to swim to the USA, but as the year the Opera browser went free and the Opera community grew larger and stronger than ever before.”
