FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Telestic, Inc. Launches Meglobe™ Beta
Next-Gen Instant Messaging service translates between 15 different
languages
April 1, 2008 - LOS ANGELES, CA.
Today Telestic, Inc. launched beta testing for its Instant Messaging (IM) offering,
Meglobe™. Created to eliminate language barriers from online communication,
Meglobe™ will revolutionize online communication by offering users the ability to
collaborate with each other across languages and culture by integrating an IM
platform with state of the art language translation technology.
Users participating in the closed beta test will have the opportunity to test a preview
version of Meglobe. Through Beta testing, Telestic will refine the user interface and
technology used in Meglobe to offer users around the world the most intuitive,
seamless multi-lingual experience possible. Key features of Meglobe include:
IM Transtation Engine ~MeGlobe’s Translation Engine provides seamless
communication across multiple languages by allowing users to type in their native
language and instantly translating their message into the native language of
whomever they are chatting with.
Contributions — Users are able to contribute to the translations engine through the
ability to edit system-provided translations to increase accuracy. The edits then
become a part of the knowledge base and in effect teach Meglobe™ to become a
better translator. This feature addresses many of the shortcomings associated with
machine translation and brings a new level of collaboration to machine translation.
Stand-alone Translator ~ Users can practice their language skills by interacting with
the stand-alone Translator. Utilizing the same translation engine used in the IM
system it will instantly translate messages between 15 different languages.
