Star Trek’s universal translator is here, and it’s on your phone.

First there was Skype’s new Translator feature which will be coming soon to a Skype app near you, and now Google Translate is adding Word Lens to their app as well! Very cool. I tried using Word Lens when it first came out, but didn’t have much practical use for it. I will definitely have to try it again!
It looks like companies are starting to understand the value of translation and localization a little more now, doesn’t it? What will be the next one to join in?
