 I gave a presentation, "International and multilingual Drupal and Joomla! sites", to LinuxFest Northwest on April 25, 2009. Below are links to my slides and handouts.
LinuxFest Northwest 2009, held at Bellingham Technical College in Bellingham, WA, USA, was a delightful event. It's thoroughly grassroots and volunteer, it has a friendly and accessible vibe, yet it attracts very knowledgeable people. (Here's the #LFNW Twitter feed if you are interested.) |

Many languages are spoken in British Columbia, Canada. Statistics Canada estimates that 18% of people BC use a language other than English at home. So it's not surprising there are blogs by BC people, or about BC, which are in languages other than English. This page attempts to catalogue those non-English langage blogs by or about British Columbia. Rules- BC focus: Either the blog's writers must be substantially in British Columbia, Canada, or the blog's topic must substantially be about BC.
- Polyglot: Blog must have substantial original content in a language other than English.
- Active: Blog must have at least four original non-English posts in the last 12 months.
- Multilingual: Special recognition for blogs which have substantial content in more than one language.
- Blog: Must be a "blog" or other social media form. Websites, even with regular updates, don't count. Should have one or more of: "blog" or "tweet" or "vlog" identity, regular time-based updates, RSS or other feed for following. If in doubt, nominate the site, and we'll adjust the directory to allow for diverse media.
This directory is moderated. To submit a blog to the directory, use this website's Contact form for Jim DeLaHunt to send a message. It helps if you can supply all the information in the table below. We will review it and post. |

IIMA talk: "Expand your reach with a successful multilingual web strategy" |

I first met IIMA when I was a panelist at the Internet Marketing Conference (IMC) in Vancouver last September 2008, which they co-sponsored. What is interesting about this audience is that they are the product managers and business decision-makers responsible for web properties. I thus aimed this talk more on the business end than the technical end of the multilingual websites topic. A number of IIMA people with substantial experience with international or multilingual web sites in their own portfolios turned out for this talk, which meant the questions were quite good.
