Users finding more Arabic to login online |GulfNews.com

More often than not there’s little in the way of local language content or relevant services on the world wide web. This is a particular problem for the Arabic-speaking world.
But that is about to change. Icann — the body that regulates the web — has made it possible for full web addresses to be written in non-Latin characters. This is doing a lot to speed up the use of Arabic on the web.
“Technology companies, engineers and entrepreneurs are engaged in a concerted effort to Arabise the web to ensure websites and tools are available in Arabic, and to create platforms that can be used by local developers to easily create useful apps that better serve the local population,” said Mohammad Mourad, regional manager at Google Gulf.
