What: The inaugural Opera User Group meeting for the Washington, DC metropolitan area (including DC, Baltimore, Annapolis, Northern Virginia, and all areas in-between).
Opera User Groups are groups for Opera users created by Opera users. We recognize that we can learn stuff from each other and want to know others that have "seen the light". Details about starting an Opera User Group in your area will be posted on our Opera Community page soon.
This first meeting will be a social event, giving us an opportunity to get to know each other and discuss topics that interest us.
When: August 7, 2006 from 6:30 - 8:30pm. Come and go as you please.
Where: The Panera Bread restaurant in Silver Spring, MD, located near the Silver Spring Metro stop. The restaurant has free WiFi, so bring a laptop if you'd like (not a requirement by any means). Food and drinks are not provided by us, but you're welcome to get something there.
Who: Anyone can come: Opera users (Opera for Desktop, Opera on mobile devices, Opera Mini, etc.), those interested in Opera, or those interested in browsers in general. You don't need to use Opera as your primary Desktop browser or even have Opera installed. There will be no quizzes about Opera!
The Washington, DC Opera User Group (WaDCOUG, I suppose) will be hosted by myself and Daniel Goldman, the man behind Opera Watch.
I hope to see you there!

How do I convince Opera to send me to Silver Spring? ;)
Good luck with that. Why
Good luck with that. ;) Why not start a user group in Tromsø?
dumb question...
I've seen your posts in forums for years now but didn't realize you were from this area.
Does Opera have an office around here, or do you work remotely?
I work remotely. I grew up
I work remotely. I grew up in this area, but moved to Oslo for a year and a half to work for Opera. I've been back in the area since March.
