It looks as if Auto Translate could be coming to Twitter, if these screenshots are anything to go by. These shots, seen in the wild by App Scout look to offer translation within the tweet.
The results page (from one of Wednesday’s trending topics, “Bloodbuzz Ohio”) allows a user to filter a tweet by language, from Arabic to Icelandic to Thai. But just above that appeared a clickable option to translate the tweets on the page to my preferred language, English.
Tweet translation has been a published desire from Biz for almost 6 months but to date has only been achieved with Greasmonkey scripts, not on the twitter client itself.
Another observation is the short link also shows an option to preview the full link before clicking which will be another important step in twitter security and their attempt to reduce spam.
We know that new updates often get released in parts around the globe, have you seen them yet?

Not sure how well this will work out for Twitter, in reality they are still a small company that does not have the resources to devote to projects like that. Google has the resources, revenue, and incentive to do this and do it well, I personally find Google Translate to be really good, and also you tend to get the gist of things the more text there is to translate. Little resources, short copy to work with – this may not be a good product…
I can barely understand half the tweets in English. What chance does an automated translator have?

Man, this has huge implications.
I do remember that Google has been working hard on translate even more than they have but when it start to come into the social media / social networking space then that gets very exciting
Just imagine no language barriers, how cool will that be. It will not just be one big conversation but one big multilingual conversation
I know I want to live in a world where you can talk to anyone in any language. We live in such exciting times

Awesome! I've been translating tweets in Chrome (my primary browser) ever since their auto-translation toolbar appeared a little while ago. Otherwise this is superb. BTW in chrome your close link (footer advert for Next Web Conference) isn't working..

We already live in that world Sir, that is if anyone takes a good look. Google translate has really helped me out, and for quite some time. I believe getting that visible to users across the web is the task at hand.
If you use Google Chrome you'll automatically have an option to translate any page with their toolbar..
