摘要 |
The current document is directed to an electronic community-based translation service that includes a distributed computer system, electronic communications media and infrastructure, multiple user processor-controlled devices, and control components that control the distributed computer system, communications infrastructure, and processor-controlled user devices to provide an electronic community in which users can view and access translations, search for translations, and provide translations. Because the translation service is community-based, users accessing translations are able to determine various characteristics associated with community-provided translations and those who provide them. In addition, users can follow community use of translations, including determining who has used community-provided translations, shared community-provided translations with others, and rated translations. |

1. An electronic community-based translation service comprising:
a data center that includes one or more computer systems, each having one or more processors, memory, and data-storage subsystems, one or more of the one or more computer systems electronically communicating with remote, processor-controlled user devices through a communications infrastructure; stored instructions within the one or more computer systems that control the one or more computer systems to receive requests from the processor-controlled user devices and transmit responses to the requests to the processor-controlled user devices to provide, on the processor-controlled user devices, an interactive user interface through which request-for-translation posts, translation posts, and general posts are posted to the data center for subsequent distribution to the processor-controlled user devices, by the data center, as community posts, community posts are received for display on display components of the processor-controlled user devices, rating information is transmitted to the data center with respect to community posts for association with the community posts and subsequent distribution to the processor-controlled user devices, by the data center, as rating indications within or associated with community posts, and information about community members is posted to the data center for subsequent distribution, by the data center, to the processor-controlled user devices. |
