Frustrating, and even more is when some clients call and say they only get google.de in German since Google assumes the IP's are in Germany. I got some reprieve for I don't know how but my default search goes to google.co.ug and its in English by default only that the relevant searches are first from Ugandan stuff. I think this prediction or simple AI of theirs is a total FAIL! ./Ok3ch On Wed, Aug 3, 2011 at 11:01 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:
Did we at any time request Google to test our patriotism??
It's a world of choices and Google has no reason to force us to read some language, even if it's our mother tongue.
Patriotism my foot ! :-))))
Haki yeetu! Haki yeetu!! Haki yeetu!!!

I also noticed it, but thought it was better than when my gmail login page is in Persian or Arabic with the form on the left (RTL written languages). But if I could play the devil's advocate, kwani hamjivunii kuwa wakenya? Kiswahili kisitukuzwe?
Yatafakari hayo.

I also had to do the same. It would be better if there was an option to choose.
