Google Reader, the search company’s news site and blog reader, is no longer limited to English. “As of today, it supports these languages: French, Italian, German, Spanish, English (UK), Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Japanese, and Korean,” wrote Kevin Systrom, a product manager, on the official Google blog.
Systrom also announced that the company was removing the “Google Labs” label from the Reader, meaning that it is past the “a bit wobbly” stage (that’s Google’s description) and has become a stable, mature product. However, the Labs label was still on the Reader page as of this afternoon. Perhaps the memo about maturation got lost in translation. —Josh Fischman
