Opera Mini for Android 7.5 browser released

If you happen to be rocking to a smartphone that relies on the Android operating system, then I am quite sure that there is this particular browser which you have a soft spot for. Some folks might settle for the stock browser that came with the operating system, others would immediately head on to Google Play and download their favorite third party browser. For fans of Opera Mini, you will be glad to hear that Opera Mini for Android 7.5 is now available for download, and its biggest claim to fame this time around is the “Smart Page” from Opera that allows you to have a quick and easy glance of what is happening in your social network, in addition to the slew of personalized news updates and a section that carries suggested links after the algorithm goes through your current location. To put it in a nutshell, the Smart Page intends to provide you with “a birds-eye view of what’s happening.”

The social tab will display updates from your list of friends across Facebook, Twitter and vKontakte, while the news section pays close attention to your browsing habits, showing off relevant headlines to you, doing so while continuing to operate in Opera’s Turbo Mode that compresses all sites you are viewing on Opera’s servers in order to save you both time and money, something that is in short supply these days.

Telkomsel’s new unlimited messaging plan gives Indonesians an alternative to BBM

Telkomsel's new unlimited messaging plans give Indonesians an alternative to BBM

As far as monopolies go, word on the interwebs is BlackBerry holds a pretty major one with its own BBM in Indonesian territory. According to DailySocial, though, that all could be changing soon thanks to Telkomsel’s newly introduced all-you-can-message plans. The deal’s fairly simple, the Indonesian carrier’s bundling applications like Opera Mini, Line, WhatsApp and KakaoTalk in an unlimited package, with pricing starting at a mere 30,000 Rp (around $3) per month. Obviously, with the inclusion of a couple of the aforementioned apps, Indonesians could — in theory — also make calls without using their precious minutes, which is quite a good deal for under four bucks. In the end, it looks like it’ll come down to how attached folks are to all those BlackBerry Messenger pins and whistles.
