I miss iGoogle Translator

I don't remember if that's its actual name, but it was in the tool bar on my bookmarks page (I don't know if that was what THAT was called, either; I just used them) - I switched begrudgingly to Chrome and my begrudging more and more seems justified. I installed a free Chrome translator and it's absolute shit. It's almost impossible for me to use ( ( Read more... )

I still like google translate best. I know it will be more chunky, but can you open a tab to translate.google.com and cut and paste into that? Since I use Firefox that's what I usually do on my computer and on my iPhone.

Ah - thanks, I hadn't thought of that. I'm dumb. :/

What I ended up doing is just bookmarking google translate. I couldn't figure out the tabs thing at all (another reason I'm not crazy about Chrome). But, this will work! Thanks!

I was going to suggest the same thing. :-)

3rd-party products like the tabs-in-front one I recced to you can be good or crap depending on the developer. Firefox was always my favourite but I'm liking Chrome more and more for portability: getting the same bookmarks etc wherever I am as long as I'm logged in.
