 What's the state of the web in your (non-English) language?
juliend2: It seems to me that if you need to get some technical information, you need to understand english. That's the main reason why i learned english. I'm Québécois (Canada).
The french web is not bad i think. But it's not the english Web. There's a lot less content in french. But there is still some nice communities and forums in some France-based portals.
