ConveyThis Archive

ConveyThis launched to the public earlier this month and their goal is to help Web and blog publishers provide translation services for visitors and readers. While ConveyThis does not actually provide the translations themselves, what they do is offer a button which allows for a quck way to get to a variety of the popular translation services.

The service works with a large number of languages including German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, and Russian.  The supported translation engines include BabelFish, Google Translate, WorldLingo and Live Translator.

The service is very similar to the "add" buttons that are on nearly every blog today. While no business model seems apparent, I can only assume that data aggregation will provide a revenue stream. Check out other reviews of ConveyThis on Pulse2 and MakeUseOf.
