Add Skobee to my list of sites I’d love-to-use-if-they-thought-about-non-Americans.

Another nod in agreement here! I’m from Malaysia. That’s as far away from “Web 2.0 America” as you can get :)

They should collect more content from the ‘edge’, like edgeio.com – I love their geographic slidebar search widget.

Totally agree…

I live in Canada, at just 20 MINUTES from the US border, and I have the same problem than all of you…

Its nearly as bad here in the UK…… we might get these services 18 months later if we’re lucky!

I suppose if it’s for local community or dating sites, it’s quite necessary. But for Web 2.0 services, it does make itself look very exclusive.

Oh, wait, Facebook is also a kind of community site, but it successfully expanded globally.

Who would’ve thought 90210 would come in handy all those years later? ;)

hear hear. I’ve been bitching about this recently… and time sensitive content is also annoying… what do you have to do to get a blog stats package that will show you your stats in Australian time? (Even with BlogBeat, which I was using recently, I could get Auckland time but not Sydney… bizarre).
