A web log from Tobias Rusås Olsen.

Norwegian or english?

Yesterday, there was some confusion in the fact that I wrote in both english AND norwegian. This might seem stressful, and I got some feedback in some of the comments that I need to be more consistent, and stick to one language.

So, this gives me a few options.

  1. Continue writing in both languages.
  2. Stick with english
  3. Stick to norwegian.

I feel that all these options has value. First of all, I feel that most of my readers will be friends of mine, or people familiar to me, and for them it would probably be best if I wrote in norwegian.

On the other hand, we are on the world wide web, and.. it’s world wide! And i want to reach out to as many people as possible.

I would really like some comments on this. What do you prefere of the three options? For now, I’m gonna stick with writing the programming-stuff in english, and the other in norwegian (with this post beeing the exception). Cheers.

  3. English is the common language of the world, do not be a discriminator!
