Social networks are reaching out all across the Web. For some, that means crossing international bounds. MySpace has done so. As has Facebook. Orkut, oddly enough, is larger without the US than within. That said, it is only natural that networks of all stripes gradually work to cater to segments of users that happen to speak primarily in tongues other than English. And maybe even vice versa.
So it is in the tradition of Web expansion that Hi5 today announces the start of Russian language support. Mind you, this isn’t the first time Hi5 has branched out in such a way. Russian is in fact the network’s 15th official option so far, granting it very notable multi-cultural accreditations.
