    Pete,

    Do you think the current delineation is along the lines of language (ie. English vs Chinese vs Korean) or geography (ie. American vs China vs South Korea) given that, for example, the Chinese diaspora is vastly spread? (speaking as an English-speaking, Singaporean-born Chinese, Australian citizen)

    Jon Y,

    Most intelligent comment ever. My hunch is that it's language-based, rather than geographical, but I don't have the stats to back that up.

    It's said that it would release in the early July.

    Well~~ just pass by

    Thank you all for your attention. It is launched already and is pretty good. But there are some systematic problems and guess they are trying to fix it up.

    For a TOTALY different direction, is there going to be any attempt at free translations, or anything like that? I know from a friend who is a linguist grad student and speaks, reads and writes about 5 languages, including a better than average understanding of Chinese, (simplified form), that it is extremely difficult to do computerized translations, so, because I have been on a social network that requires expensive translation fees, for about a year, this is a real concern for me.
