Brizzly opens up…and translates
Web-based Twitter client Brizzly made a dual announcement Friday: first, it’s opened up into a full public beta mode (previously, an invite code was required); and second, it can now translate tweets into your default language on the site.
To translate a tweet in Brizzly–which already expands links, videos, and photos posted to Twitter, creating a more visual experience–you can click on a question mark for an instant translation. This is interesting, as Twitter has made its first moves recently in launching translated versions of the service (starting with Spanish), meaning that there will potentially be many more non-English tweets flowing through the system. It uses Google Translate, so needless to say, it’s not totally perfect.
Brizzly added Facebook Connect support last month.
