Ask DLS: Speculate wildly about how Opera will "Reinvent the Web!"

Filed under: , ,


I've seen some teases in my day, but this one ranks right up there with the best of them. In just a few days, Opera is going to unveil something they claim will reinvent the Web!!!

The image above is pretty much all the information that Opera has provided. Oh, yeah, it might be called Opera Freedom and there's one more cryptic clue buried in the page's source:
We start our little story with the invention of the modern day computer. Over the years, the computers grew in numbers, and the next natural step in the evolution was to connect the together. To share things...
So what could this next evolution be? What is so amazing that Opera must spring it on an unsuspecting world at the crack of...well, the start of the business day...on Tuesday? Dear god, can the Internet even survive such a massive evolutionary change?!?!

There's only one logical thing to do: speculate wildly!!

Give it your best shot, DLSers! What do you think this is all about? How will our web experienced be changed?

Could they have found a way to eliminate annoyances like domain squatting, Rickrolls, and social white noise?

Will Opera launch a service that sends super-intelligent puppies to your house to read web pages out loud to you?

Will the company introduce a blazing fast browser the likes of which the world has never seen, but which only displays the color red?

...Or will this turn out to be a whole lot of smoke and very little bang?
