How do you say "I want to rock and roll all night and party every day" in Dutch, Taiwanese, or Swahili?
You might be able to find out today when Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons, two members of the iconic glam rock band Kiss, take part in a real-time "multi-language global chat" with fans.
The chat is, of course, designed to bring attention to Ortsbo.com, a language translation service. From the press release: "Ortsbo.com eliminates the need to cut, copy and paste text into a translator by automatically translating typed text into the specified language instantly. The service works with over 50 different languages."
Users who want to instant-message the Kiss members can communicate in their own languages. And who better than Simmons to showcase a service that deals with native tongues?
"Ortsbo.com is taking a sledgehammer to the tower of Babel," Simmons said in a statement.
Simmons and Stanley will be conducting the chat from Beverly Hills, Calif., starting at 7:30 a.m. PT.
