Now you can Convert text from any language instantly using Google talk translation bots

i just came to know an amazing feature of google projects  from this feature you can translate any language like if you want to convert from English to French, add en2fr@bot.talk.google.com to your friends’ list. Then send some text in English. The bot will send the French translation of the text as a reply. This is instant. You do not need to open translate.google.com and type in your text.

This kind of technology has many uses. For instance, if you want to chat with someone who does not know English but knows French, you can add that person, and the bots en2fr@bot.talk.google.com and fr2en@bot.talk.google.com in a group chat (available only in Google Talk Gadget and Gmail chat). Now whenever you type anything in English, the en2fr bot will convert it to French. Whenever your friend will type something in French, it will be converted to English by the fr2en bot.

The service was originally launched with 24 bots namely: ar2en, de2en, de2fr, el2en, en2ar, en2de, en2el, en2es, en2fr, en2it, en2ja, en2ko, en2nl, en2ru, en2zh, es2en, fr2de, fr2en, it2en, ja2en, ko2en, nl2en, ru2en, zh2en etc .
