On the savory topic of Web 2.0 as a social-change and political participation tool, café babel - the infamous online magazine for Europhiles and their chums - has just launched Babelblogs, a unique multilingual blogging platform in Europe.

Apparently:

• Babelblogs are European: a unique European platform for blogging.
• Babelblogs are multilingual: select your language and have your blog translated by other babelians
• Babelblogs connect Europeans : we want to get Europeans together!

I am not entirely sure of how the system works, but it does look promising…
