Facebook to Offer Translation Tools to Connect Sites

Facebook on Thursday will make the translation tool it created for members available to other sites that use the social networking giant’s Connect service.

Connect allows visitors to these sites to log in with their Facebook ID and password and communicate with their Facebook friends. Connect is used by approximately 15,000 sites and applications.

In a post Tuesday night on Facebook’s developers’ blog, Cat Lee explains:

Translations for Facebook Connect is available as a free tool for developers worldwide to simplify the process of translating a website, IFrame or FBML-based application into any of the languages Facebook currently supports.
