Seeing Forests

I’ve been in Europe off and on the last 6 months working on Local strategy in several countries.  The impact of culture and language in the use of the Internet on a local basis has been quite a good experience.   One thing I noticed is that the complexity of the North American market, for example the presence of aggregators like Trulia and SimplyHired, doesn’t seem to exist.  Individual country markets are too small and developing pan-European properties seem to be challenged by language and culture issues.  Seems like there may be an opportunity for an integrated European ex-pat aggregator but I may just be suffering from jet-lag trying to get a post out.
