Facebook starts global expansion

The social network Facebook is actively working to create non-English-language interfaces and is preparing an ambitious expansion into foreign markets. This was reported by the authoritative newspaper Financial Times, citing sources close to the company. Whether the Russian-language Facebook interface is being created, among others, is unknown.

Facebook is the second largest social network in the world (a monthly audience of 30 million in the United States, 12 million in Canada, 6.5 million in the UK, etc.), but it is the undisputed leader in terms of its potential. In terms of technological performance, innovation and patented technologies, it is a head taller than its main competitor Myspace (monthly audience of 61 million in the US, 6 million in the UK, 4 million in Canada). Recently, the process of mass migration of users from Myspace to Facebook has begun, and in Canada and the UK, Facebook has already become a leader.

Facebook's global expansion has very good prospects, considering one more unconfirmed information about the alliance with Microsoft, which allegedly gathered to invest in Facebook and agreed with a business valuation of $ 10 billion. This is despite the fact that just a year and a half ago, Yahoo valued Facebook at only $ 750 million . The owners of the social network considered the price to be too low and did not lose.
