The accomplished IT-industry veteran strengthens Opera's board with his experience from companies including AOL, AOL Time Warner, Sun Microsystems, Xerox and McGraw-Hill.

He held executive positions at Xerox and McGraw Hill prior to joining Sun Microsystems where he spent 11 years as Chief Strategy Officer, Chief Information Officer in addition to a range of other positions. He joined AOL in September 1999 as Chief Technology Officer and held the same position at AOL Time Warner after the merger. During this time InfoWorld named him CTO of the year.
Mr. Raduchel left AOL Time Warner at the end of 2002 to become an independent director, angel investor and strategic advisor. From May of 2004 until recently, he was chairman of the board of Ruckus Network, a digital entertainment network for students, serving also as CEO during much of this time. Mr. Raduchel is also a director at additional IT-related corporations, ranging from new start-ups to public companies.
"I spent three years at AOL TimeWarner learning how the media and technology sectors are integrating. Opera is right at the center of that space. I will be able to bring my experience and significant understanding of current trends to Opera's Board," says Bill Raduchel.
"Bill's expertise is invaluable to Opera Software. He provides crucial insight on how Opera can leverage its leadership in providing seamless cross-device access to the Web and other services," says Jon S. von Tetzchner, Opera Software CEO.

Opera hadert mit dem Kunden Nokia
Der norwegische Anbieter von Internet-Browsern Opera hat im zweiten Quartal dieses Jahres einen Gewinneinbruch verzeichnet. Grund für die Einbußen seien die drastisch gesunkenen Lizenz-Einnahmen des größten Kunden, des finnischen Handy-Herstellers Nokia.
hst STOCKHOLM. Durch drastisch gesunkene Lizenz-Einnahmen des Handy-Herstellers Nokia sank das Betriebsergebnis von 7,8 Millionen Kronen vor einem Jahr auf jetzt 2,2 Millionen Kronen (umgerechnet 273 000 Euro). Der Umsatz stieg um 29 Prozent auf 52,2 Millionen Kronen.
Ob sich die Situation bessert ist offen: Opera-Chef Jon von Tetzchner bezeichnete die künftigen Bestellungen des Handy-Browsers vom Großkunden Nokia als „unsicher“. Experten hatten damit gerechnet, dass Nokia, die mittlerweile immer häufiger einen eigenen Browser verwenden, vom US-Konzern Motorola als größtem Opera-Kunden abgelöst werden könnte. Bislang ist das jedoch noch nicht geschehen, und von Tetzchner wollte keinen Zeitrahmen nennen, wann er mit größeren Bestellungen des US-Konzerns rechne. Die Aktie von Opera stürzte an der Börse in Oslo nach der Mitteilung des Unternehmens um über 30 Prozent ab. Die Bank SEB Enskilda kündigte an, ihre Prognosen für Opera deutlich nach unten zu revidieren.

Unumstritten ist bei Fachleuten, dass Internet-Browser für Handys eine wachsende Bedeutung haben. Allerdings entwickeln Unternehmen wie Nokia immer häufiger eigene Software für den mobilen Internet-Zugang. Bisher zählen zu den Opera-Kunden Konzerne wie Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Ebay und Nintendo.
Schaut Euch den chart an und Ihr seht einen starken Anstieg vom Feb. dieses Jahres.
Damals hab ich schon geschrieben, das diese Aktie NICHTS für Zocker ist. Dieser Anstieg beruhte auf Zukunftsvisionen, meiner Meinung nach - etwas überzogen, aber die realität hat diese Aktie wieder eingeholt.
Ich bin der ersten Stunde dabei 7NOK, dies Aktie hat im ersten Jahr die 10NOK nicht überschritten. Geduld wird aber belohnt.
Nun mal ein Zukunftsprognosen, die wohl jeder nachvollziehen kann.
1. Handybrowser im eigendlichen Sinne wie sie heute existieren, wird es bald nicht mehr geben. Die Software des Handys wird eins werden, onlinedieste werden dazugehören, wie die Software im Handy. Telefonbücher und Co werden nicht mehr im Speicher gehalten, sondern Online. Diese Funktion wird immer mehr in Homeentertainment Systemen integriert und somit habe ich auf Daten von mit sowohl am Pc; Fernseher und Handy Zugriff,da alle auf die selbe Quelle zugreifen.
2. Homeentertainment -> integration von mobilen Geräten, Internet und Home in einen Gerät, IMMER mehr im kommen - Nintento, Setboxen usw.
3. Kompatibilität dieser verschiedenen Visualisierungen. Eine "Website" für alle Geräte! Opera hat die Lösung dafür. Server richten die Seiten entsprechent Online her!
4. Sicherheit und W3C Normen Web2.0 und AJAX , alles Begriffe, ,die Opera beherscht und somit an Normen orientiert arbeitet. Es wird immer wichtiger bei diesen schnellen Geschäft mit der Kommunikation, das man sich an Normen halten kann, um kompatibel und flexibel sein zu können.
OPERA ist eine kleine Microsoft!! das habe ich schon vor 2Jahren gesagt.
Damals dachte auch keiner das man mehr als 640KByte in einem PC nutzen kann ;-)!!
Klar, ein Kunde wie NOKIA fehlt im Gewinn, aber letztlich wird NOKIA wieder zurück kommen. OPERA Mini ist nicht umsonst der beste Browser fürs Handy, der Kunde will und benötigt sichere Browser und Nokia hat Erfahrungen bei der Hardware, aber nicht bei der Software. Schuster bleib bei Deinen Leisten! :-).
Neue Märkte und neue Kunden werden OPERA für sich entdecken!
Homeentertainment, Spielekonsolen, Automobiltechnik, Flug,Bahn und Schiff!!
Also jetzt lohnt der Einstieg immer noch und wer fest an die Aktie glaubt, so wie ich, der kauft auch bei diesen Kursen nach.
Ich freu mich auf meine Rente ;-) !
Puh, ich hoffe einigen hilft das, dass Potenzial zu erkennen.

Wer sich wegen ständig neuer Meldungen über Sicherheitsprobleme im Microsoft Internet Explorer überlegt, auf ein anderes Internetzugangsprogramm umzusteigen, findet seit Kurzem beim Data Becker Verlag Hilfe.
Werbung
Dort ist ein Buch zur aktuellen Version des norwegischen Opera-Browsers erschienen, welches den Lesern den Umstieg erleichtern will.
Kaum Sicherheitsprobleme
Wegen seiner großen Verbreitung ist der Internet Explorer ein äußerst beliebtes Ziel für Cyberkriminelle. Aber auch die besonders in Deutschland beliebte Alternative Firefox macht in letzter Zeit verstärkt durch Schwachstellen auf sich aufmerksam (zuletzt VersicherungsJournal 28.7.2006).
Ein geradezu paradiesisches Dasein führ hingegen Opera. Glaubt man einer Untersuchung des Sicherheitsunternehmens Secunia, dann fällt der Browser im Gegensatz zu seinen Mitbewerbern so gut wie nie durch hochkritische Sicherheitslücken auf.
Das ist wohl einer der Gründe, warum sich der Autor Björn Ahrens dazu entschlossen haben dürfte, ein Buch über Opera zu schreiben.
Leicht zu lesen
Auf 160 weitgehend leicht zu lesenden und reichlich bebilderten Seiten führt der Autor seine Leser in die Welt des norwegischen Browsers ein. So fällt auch Computerlaien der Umstieg auf Opera leicht.
Der Autor belegt, dass Opera nicht nur den wenigsten Speicherplatz aller Browser beansprucht, sondern auch in der Anwenderfreundlichkeit seinen Mitbewerbern gegenüber immer eine Nasenlänge voraus ist.
Gleich zu Anfang des Buches wird erklärt, wie man stressfrei vom Internet Explorer und Firefox auf Opera umsteigen kann, ohne deswegen zum Beispiel auf seine bisherige Lesezeichensammlung verzichten zu müssen.
Sprachsteuerung und mehr
Weitere Kapitel widmen sich dem sicheren und komfortablen Surfen sowie den erstaunlich vielen Einstellungen und Nutzungsmöglichkeiten, die Opera seinen Anwendern bietet. So kann der Browser beispielsweise mit sogenannten Mausgesten oder auch mit Hilfe von Sprache gesteuert werden. Einzige Macke: Opera versteht nur Englisch.
Von wenigen Ausnahmen abgesehen, vermeidet es der Autor die Leser mit „Computerchinesisch” zu quälen. Das Buch eignet sich daher auch für Computernovizen.
Was fehlt, ist ein Hinweis darauf, wie man Lesezeichen und Einstellungen sichern kann. Auch eine Tabelle mit den zumindest gängigsten Tastenkürzeln würde dem Buch gut tun.
Weitere Informationen zu dem in der Data Becker „Schnell Anleitung-Serie” erschienenen Werk sind auf den Internetseiten des Verlages zu finden.
