Opera Hits 200 Million Users; Debuts A New Featherweight Look And More In Version 11.5

When you're in fifth place in the browser races, there's room to be a little goofy. That's why it can be a pleasure to read the releases coming from Opera Software, the quirky Oslo-based company responsible for the eponymous Opera browser -- the underdog currently enjoying a 2.4 percent share of the browser market behind IE, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.Which is clearly why Opera is proud to announce that eye-catching (even if slightly irrelevant) statistics like the 1.2 million "stormtroopers, droids, and janitors" that can fit into an operational Death Star or the 11 million followers Lady Gaga has on Twitter, now have to take a backseat to Opera's own numbers, as the browser officially acknowledged that it has accumulated over 200 million users across its platforms -- a number that will now be tracked on Opera's homepage. (Along with other humorous stats.)
