But then I realised: it requires a connection to the net to work! My US Nexus One won't work over there! So I guess this feature is pretty much useless in this regard. But still cool.timwishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14973737216549334694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-60730148044680935542010-05-06T16:54:51.329-07:002010-05-06T16:54:51.329-07:00...and I thot Google was just waxing poetic...
I h......and I thot Google was just waxing poetic...<br />I have used the translation feature of Chrome. Frankly, it sucks.<br />I can do better translating French or Italian - and I don't speak either.steeleweedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02077739629921574784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-81149484371882009562010-05-06T12:53:17.105-07:002010-05-06T12:53:17.105-07:00The problem is simply that the translation is wron...The problem is simply that the translation is wrong: <br /><br />Blaise Pascal (misspelt in the transcript) is his brother-IN-LAW. And quick silver stabilizes LOWER THAN in the valley... meaining at a lower temperature. <br /><br />At this rate, Google translation risks to become the next edition of babel rather than babelfish... <br /><br />Martinfairerweatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348124538321050701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-40848948324416137032010-05-06T11:49:58.648-07:002010-05-06T11:49:58.648-07:00Ouch.

I'm not familiar with OCR architecture but this needs some work. Maybe you can leverage the Google cache of websites to improve OCR of published text to guesstimate what I'm actually looking at.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403555718960752698noreply@blogger.com
