Over at Opera Watch, there’s a lovely graph showing page views per month shown on Opera Mini.  It’s one of those sharply rising graphs we’re used to seeing from popular web start ups.  About 100,000 page views in March 2006, to almost a billion page views in July 2007.

I think that’s pretty awesome, the market shares might look ridiculously low, but if you start telling people around (and soon over) a billion pages a month are being shown on one app on mobile phones, I think it will start making people sit up and listen a bit

One of my pet discussion points recently has been about the mobile web, and how it looks like it might finally actually take off, but not with the requirement for loads of mobile specific web sites that people think it will need.

With alternatives to Opera Mini starting to show their faces, I get the impression generaly mobile web usage will finally rise to more measurable levels.
