Great tool! we were wondering if we should do 2 separate blogs (english / spanish) and this helped us decide.

Damn it. I have been happy with Netvibes for the last 18 months and have been trying not to let Google completely take over my internet experience, but I really want this feature. This will make reading the handful of French, Argentinian, Brazilian blogs I read a damn site easier than my school-level language skills.

If you fire TechCrunch Japanese translators and replace them with Google Translator, you will see how bad it is by seeing number of readers decreased dramatically

This is excellent, time to expand our own markets to Deutsche, Swiss, Italian, Chinese, Japanese and perhaps Russian? Kudos Google!

For Japanese, please try, say, NHK News or something, instead of TechCrunch Japan.
http://www3.nhk...s/news/cat0.xml

TechCrunch Japan is manually translated from English – and the translators do their job very beautifully. It just can’t be an appropriate test when you just do a sort of reverse-translation. I’m writing this because I know Google Translate still has a long way to go as far as the Japanese language is concerned. It corrupts every single sentence when you try to have an English news feed translated into Japanese. I feel sad because I’m a native Japanese speaker.

Japanese to English translation seems to work much better, though, but it is not satisfiable yet, and sometimes the results can be very misleading.

translation from english to italian is quite good
I would say that 80-90% of sentences are translated in a way that let people understand them
and I’d say that 20% of sentences are perfectly translated, as in a mother tongue printed book
trying from chinese to italian, the text is still understandable but with a few more mistakes
