Right to Left Reading = Right to Left Websites

I thought this was interesting.  Languages that read right to left employ web design that originates from the upper right of the page. I know, duh, but it’s interesting to see functional design mirroring. Ramkol, an Israeli Yelp, is a good example — logo in the upper right, header nav in the upper left, search below the header nav, primary content on the right, editing stream on the left.  Individual review pages are interesting as well.
