United.ca Celebrates 5 Years

The Canadian Web site for United Airlines (www.united.ca) is celebrating its 5-year anniversary with a special giveaway. As Web globalization goes, five years is a long time.

I’m glad to see a company promoting the success and longevity of its localized Web site and I hope to see other companies following suit. If the English-language source Web sites deserve a birthday celebration, why not include the localized sites as well?

Which reminds me: The first-year anniversary of the Spanish-language site for Southwest Airlines was on June 30th of this year.
