Facebook Places Launches In Japan

According to a release issued tonight, it appears that Facebook's geo-location feature Places is being rolled out now in Japan. Here's the translated version.

While the Google Translation doesn't seem to be 100 percent accurate, the functionality between the U.S. version and the Japanese version seems to be similar. Users will be able to access the Japanese version of Facebook Places via the Facebook iPhone app, or through the smartphone browser.
