I think facebook will win. Only because I have read some french to english, vice versa and it was wrong with errors. Maybe facebook will take their time, but they'll understand what is being asked, unlike a computer.. it still has bugs that need to be worked out. Google should invest in human translators too..

I like google for translating. It can help me automatically. I also like facebook and have got some help from it. But it deponds on human helps. so sometimes I need an urgent help, it would not work as well as what google does.

Hmm, buzz is going well with social media people and facebook is getting down with their privacy policies. Showing profiles to search engine results is something turned many people off and now they're planning to take down their facebook account. in comparison to google buzz which is only allowing buzz within group of email contacts.

Buzz is more safer than facebook as you don't get your buzz into search results. and that saves a lot of headache. recently many bloggers, removed their friends from facebook and only kept few on their account. this is due to privacy issue of facebook. so i think if google makes any changes to privacy controls and shows it or lets any anonymous search for people then it'll be as useless as facebook in terms of privacy in social network. too early to say anything about facebook vs buzz.

Translator on google is much better than translator apps on facebook. bablefish app is there on FB, don't know how many people use it for that.

I think that facebook can win this war with this practice using humans. The robots are great the problem is sometimes your results are not exact. This is a problem that I personally have with the google translator tool. I have not tested the Facebook translator tool. But very soon when I have a need I wll test it. Maybe google have to change the results to back better results because all the results in spanish that is my official language have a lot of errors and one of the easiers works like firewall are returned in english.

Go Facebook maybe this is one of the best ideas in these days.

I always find google translations to be incorrect a lot. I have never tried facebook to compare, but I'm pretty sure it would beat it for the accuracy and such.
There are no use for incorrect translations.
