30 in 30: Today we have more than 30 products in more than 30 languages, up from 5 products in 30 languages just a year ago.
In 2004, we had 150 local-language versions of various products (e.g. a product local to the UK, not just the English-speaking world); today we're at more than 1500.
From January to March of 2008, we launched 256 local-language versions of various products, compared to 55 in the same period of 2007.
We've upgraded to Unicode 5.1 to make sure that we can handle any characters people read or write in.
The web is only useful - or utile, 便利, pożyteczny, or nyttig, depending on what language you speak - to the degree it can be accessible in your language. That's why we're so excited about how far we've come - and why we know there's still a lot of work to be done.
