Five Countries Closer to World Domination

Ok, here's my idea.  Have one of the IE Muckety Mucks purchase 5 cheapo netbooks.  Have someone (hmm N.F.??) network (penpal?) with some local media folks in each of the countries, and send them the computer along with a calling card for access. :)

Ok, well, maybe all it takes is a short twitter or facebook to get you truly global :)

You know, I just can search the Russian language blogosphere and find some Georgian bloggers, who are pretty famous. I don't know them personally, but I bet, they want to share their opinion about everything on IT and Internet here.

And Nicole,  I don't know anyone from Mars, but Jupiter and Saturn are waiting when their scientists create the Internet so they finally understand what we are talking about:))))))

Mashka definitely let us know if you're able to get users from Georgia to register. That would be great! Mars and Jupiter are without a doubt on our list once we've covered the world, and we will certainly enlist your help! :)

Hmm.... Paul Whyte, a multilangual site will surely be great, but this means more IE staff who understand such languages and will be committed enough to provide good content. But impossible is not a word in IE dictionary, I guess. They just need some time to figure out what would be the best way to do it.

Hey Nicole,

Really do appreciate IE's effort to conquer the world in terms of readership. I believed the 'good' is always the enemy of the 'best' and i appreciate that you have not rested on your laurels, celebrating with some champaigne that at least within two years, you are almost so close to world domination! I think most of the us readers on this forum are really proud to be a part of the IE story and would be looking for ways to help you realized your goal.

My concern though for now is when do you intend to go global? When are we going to see a chinese version of internet evolution? How about in French and some of the international recognizable languages? I hope you don't have plans to only restrict us to English as that will be too bad for a website that has as its primary goal, the enormous task of tracking the evolution of the internet.

Nicole! I might help with Georgia!

Just may find some famous Georgian bloggers and ask them if they want to join  IE or just give the  links to their blogs and you write them.

By the way, when all countries will be covered, will we look for participants from Mars and Jupiter ( I actually may know a couple of creatures from there :)))

It is through forums such as this that reach to a global scale that have the common thread of technology that leads to better understanding.  Politicians, ambassadors, and various other bureaucrats change manipulate language and cause misunderstandings.  On the other hand, technology operates in a clearly defined manner.  Sharing ideas based on this technology can become a common thread to promote understanding for now and well into the future.  Not to mention we all can learn from each other many new techniques to approach problems.

There's a lot to be learned from an online community devoted to the business and technology aspects of the Internet's ongoing progress. Surely technologists in the countries you mention, Nicole, would welcome the chance to touch base with like-minded folk worldwide.

Further, according to Gartner, some of the regions in which the countries you mention are located are the ones set to grow the most in terms of IT spending and overall technology adoption near term. That means the rest of us have things to learn, too.

Let's get the word out!
