Hey Starkey,

Of course - we had two challenges, we wanted to have the site translated into 
as many languages as possible, but wanted to ensure we flagged any users that 
they were getting an automated translation - and their mileage may vary.

We have a drop-down in front of the interface that means the user typically 
*should* read that content. 

The implementation is pretty easy through a series of JavaScript embeds - the 
real key is every element that should be translated needs to be text.

As long as all of your content is text, it's not complex: 
http://translate.google.com/manager/website/?hl=en

One note - as with any Google service there's a limit to the number of free 
translations you can draw - if your site is high traffic (more than 50,000 
hits/translations a day) you may want to reach out to google and do a little 
math of what it will cost you.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
