Help Us Translate AddThis!
August 6th, 2009 by Justin Thorp in Updates
Over the last year, we’ve seen AddThis grow a tremendous amount. We reach over half a billion people a month, which comes out to almost half of everyone on the World Wide Web. AddThis is used by Web publishers from all over the world, from many countries and in many languages. To support this, over time with the help of our users, we’ve translated the AddThis user interface into 21 different languages.
Going forward we’d like to support many many more. We’re pleased to announce the launch of our community translation system. Users can now easily find a language, translate the phrases, and submit it to us for quality assurance. They call also make suggestions about ways for us to improve and revise our existing languages.
All translation submissions will be reviewed and approved for addition to the AddThis sharing menu. This process may take up to 30 days.
Since we quietly launched this early this week, we’ve already gotten suggestions, revisions, and translations from the community. We hope to be using the input that we collect from this to launch many more languages soon.
Our goal is to empower everyone to be able to share the content they love to whatever destinations and services they use. This helps us get one step closer to that goal.
As always, let us know what you think – justin@addthis.com
