WithTwitteralready having been translated into 7 languates officially, the company is looking to extend its reach. As CEODick Costoloannounced from The MWC keynote today, Twitter’s goal is to be available on every platform. In order to reach that goal, the company needs translation into even more languages.
According to a post onthe Twitter blog, theTwitter Translation Centershould help accomplish that feat.
We currently offer Twitter in English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish. These languages are all included in the Translation Center so translators can continue to help us with updates. We’ve also added Indonesian, Russian and Turkish to the Translation Center, as Twitter will be translated to those languages next.
The Translation Center appears to be a direct result of feedback received from Twitter’s translation volunteers thus far. Integrating the features that were most requested, it allows any user to sign up and start translating. Oh, you’ll also want to follow @translator on Twitter to keep up with the latest information.
