South Ossetia Feeds Translated
Following Graham's post about translating RSS feeds, I've put a few searches of key terms Graham identified through the Social Media News Tacker I built in Pipes and fed the resulting feeds into Moolvi's tanslation system. A reminder that the BBC isn't responsible for the content of external sites (particularly random forum and livejournal postings). Click at your own risk.
- РЕСПУБЛИКА ЮЖНАЯ ОСЕТИЯ - Republic of South Ossetia
- Хуссар Ирыстон" "Южная Осетия" - South Ossetia
- Цхинвал - Чъреба - Tskhinvali
The searches thow up some interesting, if very much unverified results.
There's further information about the cyberconflict running parallel to the actual conflict, at Computer World. In that article a security expert wisely points out, "Use caution with any Web sites that appear of a Georgia official source but are without any recent news [such as those dated Saturday, Aug. 9, or Sunday, Aug. 10], as these may be fraudulent"
