Opa Gangnam Style
- hbbio 14y agoSomehow our viral marketing campaign went beyond expectations :-)
- anigbrowl 14y agoThat's cute, but your loop stutters. If you're going to loop a sample, make sure you understand musical time first.

- rjernigan 14y agoWhy is this news? What's funny about this? Seems like marketing bullshit to me...
- mcmire 14y agoHere is the actual home page when you've gotten the joke: http://opalang.org/index.html http://opalang.org/index.html
- thesorrow 14y agoI wonder if they have the appropriate licence to do this kind of things... Especially in France...
- anonytree 14y agoThat's cute and everything, but it's "Oppan." Not "Oppa" nor "Opa."
- creatrice 14y agoDo you think it's worth to rename the framework?

- Toshio 14y agoWould someone care to explain why Gangnam Style has become such a meme that tech startups are tempted to reuse it for marketing purposes? I mean I listened to the original song on Youtube and it didn't strike me as particularly worthy of listening to again and again, let alone bringing it up in conversations with other people.
- trhtrsh 14y agoBecause it's popular, so it gets clicks. It's popular because it's the fad of the moment. It's a fad because it snowballed. It snowballed because something has to be snowballing, as people want to pay attention to something, and they want to do that as part of a group. This is that something because it's cute, nicely produced, vaguely edgy but not threatening to anyone, and it got lucky.

- eik3_de 14y ago"Opa" is the german word for grandpa, this makes reading about The Opa Framework somewhat funny..
