Top of the Week: Google Translates Email, Zyncro Streams Bing

After six years of its free automated translation service, Google Translate not only announced some statistics (200 million users globally) but a new application: Email translation. It seems surprising that Google has waited so long to tackle email. After all Microsoft’s Bing already offered a plugin for the Outlook email client back in 2009. Google probably noted that a growing number of users were pasting email into the translation pane. Emails that need translating are also likely to be more ‘formal’ than the highly idiosyncratic language of most personal emails, hence easier to translate to an acceptable level of quality. Ads can also be pegged to the local language of the end user if translation is selected. The Spanish company Zyncro, a developer of microblogging services for enterprises, has opted for Bing Translate as a translation app for its professional collaboration environment. Clearly real-time translation for all our everyday work and play content is becoming a natural developer reflex. But if you are under 21 or so, you don’t use email but you may have an iPad; there’s a wealth of handy language translation apps of varying degrees of sophistication continually popping out of the woodwork.
