Subject: [Web4lib] Babelfish translator

Is anyone using Babelfish from Yahoo/Altavista to provide a rough
translation of pages on a Library Website? I know the translations are
often laughable, but I have used it to get the sense of pages in
languages other than English.

We are seeking a low cost method to provide some assistance to those in
our community who speak languages other than English.
