The Google Chrome Web Store was launched to much fanfare late last year, but, while it managed to draw quite a lot of attention from users and developers alike, it was limited to the US, or rather to the English version of Chrome as long as you were only looking for free apps.
Now though, Google is making the first steps towards a global Web Store, it's enabling developers everywhere to upload apps for local markets and enable payments for them, in some cases.
"When we recently announced the availability of the Chrome Web Store to Chrome users in the US, we mentioned that we were hard at work making the store available globally," Qian Huang, Software Engineer at Google, wrote.
"Today we’re excited to announce a preview release of the upload flow for several international markets as a step towards that goal," he announced.
