Director of Facebook L10N Discusses Crowdsourcing
Ghassan Haddad, director of localization for Facebook, says crowdsourcing was the ideal solution for his company’s unique content. Speaking with the German web publication Computerwoche, Haddad said, “We felt that the conventional model of purely employing professional translation agencies was not practical enough to allow us to accomplish our goals.
In addition, the peculiar nature of the Facebook site made it quite necessary that the people that translated Facebook be very familiar with it. Crowd-sourcing seemed like a natural way to go and our users responded very quickly and with good quality.”
