Article: Meebo and Its Language Wiki

The arthur talks about about the Company Meebo. This company or website allows people to share information and documents on the web. The interesting think about Meebo is they used a Wiki to get support to help with a Language barrier. They had been asked for Spanish translations. They basically asked the users for language requests. So with a response for other languages they asked for translations to common phrases. The posting came in and had several languages. Some were Zulu, Thai, and Bork.
