Facebook is quickly becoming popular in Norway without local translations. Other services like Youtube and Flickr is also very popular. We have local alternatives too of course.
What I would like is if US companies would hire a Norwegian lawyer to write the Terms of Service. It's pointless to agree to some terms that have no base in Norwegian law.
You could also try to support a more free form registration form. Not all countries use the same types of zip-code and phone number...
And support UTF-8 (or at least ISO-8859-1). Most European languages use characters not found in the English alphabet (Norway has an additional three characters: Æ, Ø and Å, let's see if this form supports them. Should be displayed as Æ, Ø and Å)
- ks 19y agoOK, this is a good example. The site does not support Æ, Ø or Å :-) It was only displayed correctly when I entered their HTML entities. If this page were meant for Europe, it would fail. When you are building a social site it is important that people can use their own language.
