Just read about that Oliver modified a multi-protocal chat client, InstantBird, for XO. Maybe it would be a good start. Anyway, one can always use gmail chat function with Web activity for this. What come to my mind is a bot for espeak. :) (this is not new as a $100 tux droid does. check http://www.tuxisalive.com/ ) -- Best regards, Yuan Chao ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: multilingual googletalk
This is awesome. Coincidentally, I just spent a few hours last night experimenting with adding machine translation to Speak via Moses ( http://www.statmt.org/moses/ ) but I was frustrated by the size of the phrase tables. Having a service on the network for translation would be an excellent alternative. I wonder about their terms of service, and whether they would be willing to provide this as a free service to all XO users. -josh On Jan 25, 2008, at 11:29 AM, Todd Kelsey wrote: > Hi - you may already know about this but evidently as of mid > december you can now invite chat bots into googletalk, in order to > have instant messaging conversations with people in different > languages.

multilingual googletalk
Hi - you may already know about this but evidently as of mid december you can now invite chat bots into googletalk, in order to have instant messaging conversations with people in different languages. (widget version also supports group chat). --- http://www.worldwidelexicon.org/original/2080.html --- http://googletalk.blogspot.com/2007/12/merry-christmas-god-jul-and.html --- I do not have the technical expertise to know how to implement gtalk on the xo but would be interested in doing some tests or participating in a multilingual classroom connection as part of my phd dissertation. Multilingual IM on the xo would be a dream come true. Perhaps it might work through the "integrated" gtalk in gmail or iGoogle.
