Script Summary: Embeds the Google Website Translator into Sina Weibo



Rejoice, non-Chinese speakers! You too can use Sina Weibo, China's most popular microblogging site / social media platform!

This script embeds the Google Website Translator into Sina Weibo to provide on-the-fly translation into English or any other language supported by Google Translate.

While the Google Translate API is now only available to paid customers, the website translator gadget remains free to use. So this script should continue working while other Firefox translation add-ons that use the Google Translate API (through unofficial means) may cease to work at any moment.

I haven't tested this in Google Chrome, but Chrome has built-in translation, so Chrome users don't need this script :-)


Have a suggestion or feature you'd like to see?

Leave a comment in Discussions, or fork the script at GitHub!
