Authored by Mark Hefflinger on February 8, 2008 - 12:17pm.

Palo Alto, Calif. - The Facebook online social network on Friday announced the launch of a Spanish-language version of its site, which was created with the input of nearly 1,500 Spanish-speaking Facebook users who helped translate the site in less than a month. Beginning on Monday, any person who visits the site from a Spanish-speaking country will see the site in Spanish; the company currently claims 2.8 million active users in Latin America and Spain. Facebook said German and French versions are expected to be added in the coming weeks.
