There are plugins that make it so, with more or less success. If you want those plugins, yes, you need your own version of wordpress installed on your server. http://dreamhost.com isn't too bad if you're starting, and there are tons of others out there. But you don't need a plugin to make your blog multilingual, really. As I try to explain in my talk (video here, it's in English: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2096847420084039011 ) translating everything in parallel doesn't work, because it's too much work. The whole idea of blogging is that it makes it really easy to publish: just write, then hit publish. If you have to translate everything... forget it, you won't do it (unless you're one of these rare, very focused, somewhat obsessed people... I know some who manage to do it.) The best solution is a mix: sometimes one language, sometimes both, sometimes a bit of translation if it's important. Be free-form, just like blogging is.

Go "experimental" for a couple of months...and if it's not such p.i.t.a. and you're ready to go, make it permanent... Get your dedicated 1GB,(or whatever size fits your initial idea/goal the best) subscription for a year, (full service included... backup,anti-virus,etc) on some Linux-based server and roll on. And stick to .com or .net or .org ONLY, it is a bit more expensive but you and your visitors won't be disappointed. Best of luck Sincerely yours, M-011 ;-) Well, it won’t be easy, but at least you can try with your own domain.

I even have one english text on my blog. English is not my mother tongue. That, and the complexity and demanding nature of my writing, prevented me from putting this idea into action. The only way for a blog to be well known and visited is for it to be written in english language. I would say that the only way to approximate this in this environment is to write parallel texts. There is multi-lingual wordpress, which would be a perfect tool for publishing bi-lingual blogs. However, for this, one needs own domain, or at least a blog uploaded as our blog.blog381.com :-) Great idea, I have been thinking about it for quite some time.
