Facebook Announces New Languages

Over a week ago I wrote about Facebook launching their service in 3 new languages. Over the past 24 hours I have received countless emails notifying me of the news yet again. I’m not quite sure why Facebook waited so long to make a press announcement. Additionally, Facebook hasn’t even included all of the languages that they’ve added in their announcement.

Over the coming weeks Facebook will announce a number of new languages as they finish the translation process with the Facebook translations application. If you are in another country and use another language as your primary language then it’s time to get excited! Facebook is also in the process of launching a new profile design which makes it easier for users to communicate effectively no matter what language they are using.

As Facebook expands internationally, maintaining a clean interface while providing a multi-lingual platform is extremely challenging. Facebook has emphasized their dedication to building a highly efficient communication platform.

Thanks for the post Nick!

Hopefully Facebook will reconsider. If anything building Facebok Pages has likely helped them attract advertisers faster than they would have otherwise. Makes no sense why they would delete the accounts of the people most active in the community
