Summary

Facebook releases new Facebook Connect tools designed for providing translations, and for incorporating Facebook into a site with little developer experience required.
Facebook made a dual set of announcements this week pertaining to Facebook Connect, the universal-log-in product that it offers to third-party developers and Web sites. Both are aimed at making Connect more ubiquitous.

First, a tool called "Translations for Facebook Connect" that simplifies the process of translating the product into international languages, and second, the "Facebook Connect Wizard" for incorporating the product into a site with little developer expertise required.

The tool can be used to translate any site into the language of a given user who's logged in with Connect.
