Blogger going global…

Gee is Google, through Blogger, out to conquer the world?

Seriously, I’ve got to think giving people the ability to use Blogger with their own language is only going to increase the number of people and veiwpoints being represented on the web and that’s got to be good, right?

Now, what they need to do is have an application that automatically senses the language settings in your browser and directs you to a translated page. For example, if you speak French and have your browser set that way, when you come here, instead of seeing this, you’d be redirected to an accurate French translation of this page. That would rock!

    Jeff makes an interesting point regarding writing a weblog anonymously or not. It’s something I’ve been struggling with as the new year approaches and I look at the prospect of a job search. Is the fact that you can easily find my weblog by searching by my name a good thing or not a good…
