After quietly launching Turkish and Russian language services two months ago, starting in April 2011 Twitter officially added it’s work from its Turkish and Russian translators. The official announcement also included Russian and Turkish voices personalities to follow ranging from TV host, news anchor, journalists and singer based in Russia and Turkey. The update is available on twitter website and mobile twitter, but some apps that developed separately such as iPhone and iPad twitter apps won’t support Turkish and Russian language services.
Following the announcement of Korean language services in January 2011, Twitter’s multilingual capability now covers English, French, Italian, Japanese, German, Spanish, Korean, Russian and Turkish. The message character count remains the same, limited at 140-character in all languages.
Russia: Russian Voices Online
Turkey: Turkish Voices Online
After launching in 2006, Twitter has registered over 200 million users with an increasing worldwide expansion. Twitters increasing revenues in emerging geographies is one of the business drivers pushing the multilingual content support. This business driver is confirmed when looking at recently added Twitter local trends covering 100 locations, expanding into 13 countries beyond the US cities of New York City and Washington, DC.
