Google just added a Thai language machine translation among 41 languages, according to a recent google blog.
Now I think Thai people have to be more careful about what they posted. Anything, even a private blog in Thai could be understood by most earthlings. The blog article is linked above.
Here is the location of the Thai translation web. I have not tried for the quality. (I am curious if it would work with classical or ancient Thai, or a Buddhist dhamma article in which even layman Thai can not even understand. I will test later.)

Addendum:-
I tested.
Just for fun though:-
I tested a Pali phrase in Thai alphabets and the translation went crazy.
Also, after testing a paragraph from a Thai news article, the translation would not work properly due to the truncated language style or headline style of the language, not to mention the slangs used in a news article.
