Zhoriben

Facebook, MySpace, Orkut, Hi5, Friendster, Iwiw – only some of the community website on the Internet. For already a month, there is a new one: Zhoriben (http://www.zhoriben.net) – meaning contact in Lovari language.
The default language of the site is Lovari, but it is possible to change it to Croatian, Slovakian, Czech, German, English and Romanian. You can only be a member of the network, if you receive an invitation from someone who is already there. The idea is to strengthen the contacts among Roma worldwide, and to strengthen also the presence of Roma on the Web.
They have one problem though. In the Lovari language, some words used in Computer Science simply do not exist yet. Instead of those, the English version is used, at least, until the community does not create the new expressions.
