Google Translator is really good at what it does, i.e., translating text. You feed it with a string of text and instantly get the result in various other languages. It also supports translating entire web pages, but what if you have some MS Office documents to translate?

Not everything is written in English. What will you do when you need to find what videos of Barack Obama are Japanese people posting? Or when you need to find photos of a Chinese actress? Of course the Chinese newspapers and blogs would have more photos of their own actress than a newspaper in US. Now the only method is to first translate the name using Google Translate or Yahoo!
