San Francisco - The Facebook online social network has recruited its own users to help translate the site into other languages, CNET News.com reports. International users can install a "Translation" application, which can be used to translate the site into their native language. Users are then able to vote as to the quality of the various translations, and can also report lower quality translations or translators. The application is currently available for languages including French, Spanish and German.
