Opera, Mum On Facebook Rumors, Says Mobile Users Double To 200M, And That Facebook Dominates In Africa
The buzz about a possible acquisition by Facebook has almost completely died down, but Opera today released an update on the state of its business that nevertheless highlights how its own strategic direction is closely following that of its rumored suitor.The combined number of active users of Opera's mobile internet browsers has now topped 200 million, nearly double the figure a year ago, with pageviews more than doubling to 115 billion. And just as Facebook highlighted in its earnings call last week that emerging markets and mobile use were a key part of its advertising story, Opera in its State of the Mobile Web report has also zeroed in on how well it's been performing in one emerging market in particular: Africa, where Opera's figures reveal that Facebook is, by far, the most popular site in the region.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/SeZOs4GCHsY/
