inoSMI ((ロシア語:иноСМИ), a derivation from "foreign mass media") is an internet media project that monitors and translates articles published in foreign and Western media into Russian. Translations are published online on a daily basis. The range of topics varies, but most of the translated articles are analytical essays written by Western journalists and dedicated to Russia. Regular news articles are rarely published. The service is affiliated with the RIA Novosti news agency and is sponsored by the Federal Agency on Press and Mass Communications of Russia (FAPMC). The project was masterminded and directed by Yaroslav Ognev who has been serving as its editor-in-chief since its foundation. In March 2009 Marina Pustilnik was assigned the editor-in-chief of InoSmi.〔(Marina Pustilnik is assigned Editor-in-Chief of InoSmi ), by RIAN, March 11, 2009〕 While RIA Novosti states that the project web-site was launched in February 2004, a whois service query indicates that the domain name had been reserved since 2001.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Whois service for inosmi.ru )〕 ==Activity== While the service has several professional translators on its payroll, a noticeable fraction of translations is performed by its eager readers on a voluntary basis. Readers also participate in media monitoring, as they may suggest an article for translation. The site has a forum where new publications are discussed. The moderation policy is rather loose and allows for a variety of views. Material that can be regarded by editors as promoting competing reader projects will be censored though. An unusual phenomenon that took off recently on InoSMI forum can be described as a massive voluntary effort in translating into Russian other readers' forums hosted by foreign media. InoSMI also invites leading foreign journalists and editors to discuss the publications with Russian readers. For instance, Stanislaw Lem's conference with the inosmi.ru readers (on 17 Jan. 2006) was the last press conference before his death.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「InoSMI」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
