I'm very bored and decided to take a crack at Yahoo! Pipes translation service, I've managed to convert our RSS Feed/Newsletter into French through their automated service.
Honestly there isn't much use for this - while the feed will be in French, when you click the link for the full details it'll still be in English, but French people or French Canadians, or maybe those who speak French, might enjoy it. Maybe eventually the site could be well translated too.
Feed details at FeedBurner.
If I spoke French I'm sure I'd see what awful job automatic translation does, but I don't ... if it comes out sounding stupid or offensive, not my fault (well, mostly not my fault)
Its funny to see what it did and didn't translate:
