Opera Unite Setup
Users must select a computer user name so their machines are distinguished from others on the Unite Web service platform.
Unite Home Page
Unite offers options for Web serving, file-sharing, photo-sharing and more. Consumer-centric applications are the key in the early going for Unite, but Opera expects enterprise apps to follow once the platform builds trust.
Unite Services Listing
Set up a profile in a social network-like Web service interface and choose from any of six Web services.
Web Server
Unite's Web Server takes the data-serving duties away from third-party servers. The Web Server lets users share content directly with other Unite users' machines. The control is clear.
The Lounge
This is where it all happens. Well, not really, but it sounds like a cool nightspot. Instead, the Unite Lounge is a place where users can chat with one another online.
File Sharing
File sharing is important and Opera recognizes that. Unite features a file sharing tool that enables easy one-click access to files. Note the access control panel on the right.
Photo Sharing
Also, a must-have for Flickr-fed users, Unite photo-sharing doesn't require users to upload their picture to the Web.
Media Player
Get remote access to your MP3 files here. Simple URL links.
The Fridge
The fridge is cool, but don't be fooled by the name. You don't store brain food here, but post virtual sticky notes for your friends on a virtual refrigerator.

Web browser maker Opera is attracting attention from high-tech watchers and Web programmers for Unite, a Web services platform that looks to cut out third-party servers from the computing equation. The software comes as Web browser rivals Mozilla, Google, Microsoft and several other prominent players are trying to improve users' Web surfing experiences by extending their Web browsers using a mashup of open standards and proprietary technologies.
