Opera is retailiating against MSFT's intentional breaking of MSN for Opera users. A new edition of Opera renders MSN pages in Swedish-Chef-borkspeak.
"Hergee berger snooger bork," says Mary Lambert, product line manager desktop, Opera Software. "This is a joke. However, we are trying to make an important point. The MSN site is sending Opera users what appear to be intentionally distorted pages. The Bork edition illustrates how browsers could also distort content, as the Bork edition does. The real point here is that the success of the Web depends on software and Web site developers behaving well and rising above corporate rivalry."
Hrm — reading the above, it's not clear to me whether Opera actually released the Bork edition, or just issued a gag press-release about it. I really hope they released it.
(Thanks, Cathy!)
