YouTube in 9 more domains
June 19, 2007
Posted by Sakina Arsiwala, International Manager, YouTube
The YouTube community began life speaking English, but thanks to the uniquely expressive medium of video, today there is a global village of content makers and viewers. With a noteworthy number of YouTube visitors now coming from outside the U.S., it's high time we go multilingual.
Today at a Google press event in Paris, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen are announcing the launch of nine new domains in
Brazil
,
France
,
Italy
,
Japan
,
the Netherlands
,
Poland
,
Spain
,
Ireland
, and the
UK
.
In response to many requests, each new site is fully translated and localized for each country including content (Featured Videos, Director Videos, Promotions), as well as the interfaces, search, user support, and such community features as video ratings, sharing, and content flagging. And these new localized versions are built using Google search technology, so you can quickly find more of what you want to see. Perhaps best of all, you can continue to use
youtube.com
, or move to one of these localized sites -- and switch seamlessly between the two. Happy creating, viewing and sharing!
Update:
Removed link to user content.
