Flickr grows in the multilingual marketplace

What do some US based company's lack? Versions made especially for other markets, especially countries where they are getting large amounts of traffic from. Of course it takes time and a team of dedicated experts in the geographic location to pull it off in a reasonable amount of time, but it is expected from larger companies like Google or Yahoo.

Flickr has managed to pump out an additional seven languages for its user base today. French, Germany, UK and Hong Kong Chinese. Flickr's current user base consists of 55% that are actually residing outside of the US. This is a hot global product, and Flickr has recognized this with this massive upgrade. This new language entry will surely see Flickr's 525 million photos grow substantially over the next little while.
