LangID is a free web 2.0 service which allows users to identify in which language a text was written by submitting it in different ways.

It is possible to query LangID via direct input (type or paste the text), via upload ( pdf,doc,xls … ), mail and even via Twitter. The twitter and email bots should reply to the user in 5 mins with the full english name of the language and its ISO code.

To ask LangID to identify your texts from twitter you need to add the bot to your followers and then tweet @langidbot and the text you want to identify.

If you want more informations about the service you can read LangID about page.
