Google Wave and Google Translate

Reading a recent article about a new release of google translate, only makes you wonder what will be possible.

The recent gt (google translate) feature to be released is the ability to translate, in real time, anything you type. WOW, this is amazing. While still early in the development cycle, they are also looking for suggestions on improvement.

But, when this tool obtains a good collection of data, who better than google, this with google wave will knock down the language gaps. If you have not seen it yet, take a look at google wave. You can see a cool demo at google.com/wave.

With GT and GW (google wave) i could chat, in real time, with someone speaking another launguage in the same wave.

Amazing, this will be something to see.

Opera

Just recently obtained a new computer and I knew I was missing something on the reinstall list, opera. So far I am impressed with the speed of the browser as compared to the others on the battlefield. But only time will tell.

I mainly look forward to the bookmark sync. With the different platforms I work on any given day, this will make sure I am in contact with my required links. 

check it out at opera.com

Please do not toy with my emotions.

Below is a chat transcript with “Nicole” about the possible new phone. Is September 10th really going to happen? Can verizon wait 6 months?

Chat InformationA Verizon Wireless online pre-sales specialist has joined the chat. You are now chatting with Nicole
Nicole: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service.  May I help you with your order today?
You: Well I am looking for a new phone, but do not see any of the Android phones listed. 
You: Will they be coming out soon?
Nicole: I will be happy to assist you with that today. I do not see any new phones coming out in the next 6 months that have that service. 
You: oh. 
Nicole: What features interest you in a phone? 
You: To be honest it will be the first “google” phone on the verizon network, and I am looking forward to it. 
Nicole: Oh ok well great, is there anything else I can assist you with today? 
You: Nope, i will check back in 6 months.

Is this a real person or did they just pull the key words?
