Google's googly

Anita writes about the wrong 'un bowled by Google by redirecting it users to language editions based on where the user comes from. A well-meaning step by Google... but one that proved to be a minor irritant for its countless users who are so used to seeing Google in its regular English avatar. Google has since withdrawn this feature.

However, I must admire Google's efforts at internationalizing its interface.

Ohh btw, the article mentioned here contains my two cents too! :-)
