I've just had a forum idea that I think many of us would find really useful. (Well I would)

The idea is a series of translation forums (fora?).

So say I've got - for example - a 200 word Yahoo description of my site or a web page describing my product etc.

I post a rough description on say the French branch of the forum and someone who speaks French (and is looking for an English 'translation') responds. I translate my site using http://world.altavista.com/ so that he does not have to make a "cold" translation and send it to them and they polish up the French so that it does not come out like something out of 'Allo 'Allo. In exchange I do the same for them and we all extend the reach of out projects in Europe

Useful?
