Coolest online translation utility for global reach

  • Comments 6

I don't know if you've ever seen a blog with a little drop down with "translate" in it .  I saw one today by following some track backs to others that were in job changes the choose your own adventure post was a great analogy.  I must admit I was so surprised by it, I hit the drop down and saw how you could dynamically change the language and hit the button and boom it would send the blog off to be translated.  (Credit for where I found it goes to Hanselman, I snippet it from there.)  Very slick.  (You can try it on this blog to the left)  I simply added this one little line of code.

Here's my blog translated into Arabic, how slick is that?

Add the web page Translator to your site: http://translator.live.com/AddIn.aspx?MKT=en-US

Get one-click web page translations with the Windows Live Toolbar Translator Button.

I can imagine this might be just a bit easier to manage than variations.  :)

Looks like there is a desktop version for translating word docs and stuff for pretty cheap... http://www.systransoft.com/live?mkt=en-US
