Google (GOOG) China is reportedly planning to launch eight types of localized products in December 2006.

All the products to be released are designed and developed by Google China's R&D Center and most of them revolve around entertainment and communities. There is no word from Google China about what specific applications will be provided in December.

In order to ensure that these products can be released on schedule, local media report that starting in October many of the staff at Google China began to work extra hours.

This is the first time that Google China has launched so many totally localized products in China.
