MySpace, Facebook and Twitter’s in troubles First time user’s profiles, chat and messages translated into ten languages. What the recognized social networks can´t do.
BigNews.Biz - Aug 13,2009 - MySpace, Facebook and Twitter were created in 2003, 2004 and 2006 respectively by young minds that did not imagine what they could achieve.
Today, they are the leading social networking sites with almost 126 million users in MySpace , 250 million in Facebook and 45 million in Twitter . It is also true that these sites are permanently faced with difficult challenges, such as confidentiality and security issues, user’s personal data protection and international legislation.
[b]First great limitation: Language [/b]
In social networking sites, users keep in touch with different contacts exclusively in those languages that they personally speak. Therefore, a German Facebook user, cannot contact, chat or simply understand a profile of a Russian, Spanish or European user.
The English language is spoken by less than 1/3 of Internet’s total users, in other words, out of 1.596 million Internet users, only 463 million use this language online, (followed by 321 million that use Chinese online ). Less than 10% of the worlds most populated regions speak English: Asia, Africa y Latin America.
Lienku.com marks the beginning of a new era, that will encourage expansion and contact between people of different cultures and languages. To this moment cultures were isolated by geographical, ideological and linguistic distances.
Lienku.com is the first social networking site that provides instant translation in the world’s ten most popular languages, for all its contents, user profiles, messages and chat.
Another great benefit instant translation in Lienku.com is the potential for future evolution of the automatic translation system. Currently, there is no perfect automatic translation system.
The only way to improve and promote the evolution of this system, is to receive user’s input by proposing a better translation to a certain text. This nurtures the data base and helps to improve the system’s parameters.
The fact that up to this date, there was no Internet platform for the exchange between languages, has greatly limited the possibility to improve automatic translation systems, that require the active participation of users. Thanks to Lienku.com, the input provided by its users will help its automatic translation system to permanently evolve.
[b]Second great limitation: Networks [/b]
According to the theory of the six degrees of separation, only six chains separate any of us from another person in the world.
For online communities such as Facebook or Twitter, the network is a place to contact past or present friends. The social network is generated by the contacts that arise from friends of friends.
Lienku.com, is the first social networking site that allows its users to create a new network , with people from around the world, without having to depend on other friends to introduce them. Lienku.com’s users are joined by there common preferences, interests and objectives.
In Lienku.com people are joined by their objectives, principles and common values.
This opens the way for people to know each other because they share preferences in spite of having no prior relations in the past.
[b]Third great limitation: No cultural exchange [/b]
