So talk about internationalization.It’s coming late next year.
現在談談國際化的問題吧。掘客網的國際化應該是在明年晚些時候進行。
As a bit of a hint, are there any countries where Digg is extremely popular and a language translation might make sense?
能否透露掘客網在哪些國家最受歡迎，最早可能出現什么語言版本的掘客網？
Well, London is our largest city overall.
倫敦是我們用戶最多的城市。
But outside of that, as far as different languages are concerned, there is demand from certain users coming in and writing to us,
除此之外，只要有不同語言的存在，該語種的用戶就會出現寫信要求我們。
but we see a lot of Digg-type clone sites, and those are the ones that we kind of keep tabs on.
但是我們也發現了許多模仿我們的網站，對于這些網站我們一直保持密切關注。
So we say, OK, where are our competitors and how are they doing?
所以我們會說，我們的競 爭對手在哪里？他們進展如何？
There’s a Spanish version of Digg, there’s a German version of Digg that’s called Yigg or something like that.
有一個西班牙語版本的掘客網，還有一個德語版的掘客網，叫做伊格之類。
And they’re unofficial, or do they use your API or anything like that?
這些都是非正式的網站？他們使用的是你們的應用編程接□還是類似其他的？
They’re unofficial. They do their own thing.
他們都是非正式網站。不過，他們都是自己在發展。
And then there’s also a Digg in Japan that has some traction as well.
日本也有一個類似網站很受歡迎。
So we look at this stuff and we say, OK, what do we do? Do we open up a version of Digg out there?
對于這些網站，我們怎么辦？我們需要在那開設該國家語言的掘客網嗎？
Do we acquire these companies?
我們需要收購這些網站嗎？
It’s all stuff that we talk about and I think that where you’ll see this expand first is a combination of both requests from users and where our competitors are starting to take off.
實際上，我們一直研究這些問題。我想，我們的擴展首先會出現在用戶需求大，競爭對手正在騰飛的地方。
So you might acquire a smaller competitor?
所以你們有可能會收購一家較小規模的競爭對手？
Sure, potentially.
當然有這種可能。
Would you look at all into “crowd-sourced” language translations that we，re seeing on sites like Facebook and Hi5?
你們是否會考慮像臉譜網和Hi5那樣，利用用戶進行“群組”翻譯？
The translation, we don’t have a ton of things that would need to be translated.
翻譯，我們實際上沒有多少東西需要翻譯。
It’s not like we would be translating the US submissions.
這不是要我們為美國用戶翻譯。
It would be their own submissions and a whole separate engine running an instance of Digg outside of our own，
他們為自己翻譯并且有獨立的引擎系統可以在掘客網外部運行
but still connected so that you could go to the US version of Digg and it would show up in your profile and everything.
但是必須是與我們保持聯系，這樣你便可以在你的文件夾或者其他任何地方看到美國版本的掘客網。
