The Global Requirements of a Blog Platform

There are many blog tools out there - few have considered the necessity to embrace all spoken languages.

This thread item on the bloggerDev group caught my eye:

"I'm a Chinese user, there is a small problem with the generated filename that it can't give a representative filename when I submit a post with a chinese word title. So, I suggest that blogger.com can add a new textfield for non-english users (e.g Chinese, Korean, Japanese) to provide representative filenames for their posts." -- bloggerDev Member
