Facebook frequently uses a browser to open a knife

Facebook has made frequent moves since its launch. After spending $80 million to buy the mobile e-commerce platform Karma, it launched its own photo sharing app Camera, which is now rumored to have acquired the Opera Browser. It seems that Hamish McKenzie is only half guessed: Mobile browsers are the key to Facebook's mobile solution, but it has not chosen independent research and development, instead, we can improve our Internet portal in the browser through acquisitions.

Yahoo has already launched the Axis browser, and Facebook has no reason to slack off.

Currently, both parties refuse to comment on this message. However, according to sources, Opera executives are negotiating with potential buyers. as a public company, Opera hopes to become part of a larger private or public company. At the same time, there are reliable news that Opera has stopped external recruitment. Does this mean that there will be major changes to Opera?

Obviously, for mobile Facebook, acquiring a good browser is much faster than making a browser. The number of users logging on to and accessing Facebook through mobile devices is growing rapidly, and Facebook has set "mobile first" as its primary development strategy.

With over 750 employees, Opera currently has 0.27 billion users each month, and the number of users using Opera Mini exceeds 0.168 billion. The company's management team is also very strong, and its chief technical consultant (CTO) is H kon Wium Lie, known as the father of CSS. In the second quarter of this year, Opera's revenue reached $50 million.

The acquisition of such a company with a solid user base and excellent performance should be a big deal, but I believe Facebook, which is not short for listing, is not inferior.
