NOTE: This was an April Fools day prank

Today we introduce Face Gestures, a revolutionary technology designed to make interacting with Opera easier on computers with cameras. Face Gestures lets you perform frequent browsing operations with natural and easy to make face gestures. By using an internal technology dubbed Face Observation Opera Language, we are able to recognize pre-determined facial expressions and match them to commands on the Opera browser.


I guess it's time to add Face Observation Opera Language to the list of languages I need to learn. :D


Here's a link to the video on youtube if you can't see the one below.

Not sure how i could cope with this. I do most of these gestures normally when sitting in front of a computer.
