Όλος ο πλανήτης στα δαχτυλά σας!

Yet another language, Greek in this case. The title of this post says: The whole planet at your fingertips, and it fits nicely as a tagline in the new interface in that language.

It's the language n. 14 in our count, and the Greek translation has been provided by Spiros Denaxas, who is a Perl progammer based in London. The Greek script is the first non-latin alphabet featured in Tagzania. It looks nice, if you have Greek fonts on your computer. Here's part of a screenshot:




The application is ready for all writing systems, and tags and descriptions in Asian scripts look nice. We hope to have the interface in those scripts as well at some moment...

Meanwhile, talking of Greek marvels, Unesco is promoting a new list of the World's Seven Wonders. The ancient seven wonders of the World were architectural sites that the ancient Greek considered remarkable. Unesco thinks it's time for an update, and a list of 200 candidate sites has been narrowed to 21 by a group of experts. Those 21 include the Acropolis in Athens, featured in that snapshot above. Now it's the turn for Internet users around the globe to decide. Cast your vote on the official site of the New 7 Wonders. Voting is open until July 7, 2007. We have the whole list mapped here at Tagzania, of course.
