(Unfortunately, on some of those sites, you need to become a member
before you can see any profiles.)
Another few sites to try:

As far as tagging being unfair to non-english speakers: I think most
business are willing to only focus on the English speaking part of the
'web. Many also tend to split off communities by country and/or
language (examples: google, yahoo, ebay, etc etc etc) once there is a
identified market in that country.
English is the lingua franca of the web. While it's important to
understand and accomodate for i18n issues, I would say that the 80/20
rule would preclude us, at least for now, from really looking too hard
at how to handle microformats in other languages. Plus, I think
there's a better, more general solution to this problem rather than
trying to shoehorn it in to hReview or "hPersonal" (i.e. some kind of
automated JS-based localizing, similar to how desktop applications
work).
