Community translation

By Jonathan + April 15th, 2007

As I mentioned yesterday, I’m a big fan of the feature-set being developed by the people at Mojiti. I’ve started following their blog, and today they added another innovative feature: community translation. They’ve provided an interface for users to translate all the text on the site (1117 phrases) from English to one of 31 languages. Once all the translations are made for a particular language, they roll it out on the site.

For an international site like Mojiti (who doesn’t love watching guys being hit in the groan with footballs in any language ;)), this sounds like a great way to grow your traffic and attract a much broader audience. ASP.NET makes displaying multiple languages pretty straight forward with built-in globalization features using resource files.

Once again, nice job Mojiiti! I translated some French for you ;)
