Google Dashboard and preferred language issue
Well that’s annoying…one thing Google doesn’t do intelligently is languages. I am logged into my account, they KNOW I speak English as a preferred language, but when I go to my iGoogle [google.com] page on my iPhone whilst I’m in Belgium it insists on displaying everything in Dutch.
That was annoying enough…but now the dashboard is doing the same, even when I visit the page from my laptop.
Google, you KNOW I speak English, stop overriding my account setting for my language with demographic data based on my IP address. When I’m traveling it doesn’t make me fluent in the local language…
*slaps the company on the nose with a rolled up newspaper* Bad Google, bad bad portal!

That’s one of the reasons I love Slashdot – proper way of commenting the things!
Oh, yeah, about Google Dashboard – yep, it’s quite handy and useful!
