Google Releases Website Translator Gadget - http://www.livecrunch.com/2009...

Does it actively update the translation if parts of a page asynchronously update?
- Micah Wittman
I'm not too sure but you basically get what you get in Google Translate as that is the underlying technology.
- Michael
I dont think it works with ajaxified RIA's

Bugs? What bugs? It's never crashed on me either.

Hadn't noticed the update since I am using the 'beta' 1.4 which has not crashed since launching (a long time ago)
- Peter van Teeseling
I am also using 'beta' 1.4 and it hasn't crashed on me neither

1.4b8 was crashing on me every few days, with the problem of Yahoo Messenger IMs coming through in duplicate, which was supposedly fixed. Upgraded to 1.4b9 today and so far so good.

Gmail Nudges Past AOL Email In The U.S. To Take No. 3 Spot. - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...

I don't think hotmail users know what they're missing. Is it that hard to switch (migrate emails) from hotmail to gmail?
- Chuck Kahn
Is Yahoo number four? How many users?
- LogEx
Yahoo's #1- "106 million monthly unique visitors"
- Chuck Kahn
Kind of dumb for TechCrunch to put out a graph like this and leave off the major player.
- LogEx
actually if you show Yahoo on the graph, you won't be able to see the "crossing point" of gmail and AOL so clearly because they(gmail and AOL) would be squished down.
- vijay
still? as i know gmail is the best email ever, people go in for hotmail just like they keep using IE, and as for yahoo it is the messenger that is keeping them good, people don't try third party softwares, applications they just feel great that they a using a licensed OS and default is the best for them, it is just the mentality
- testbeta
I think most people use hotmail only because they don't know you can use WLM with a gmail address.
- April Russo (app103)
I haven't used Hotmail for a while now but went back to it just a few days ago. It's not bad, I like it.

- Rui Pereira
from iPod
I use sms to receive DMs and sometimes to post if edge is down.
- Ward Seward
I did when I didn't have a smart phone with a twitter app, and wanted to send out updates while out and about. also, mymilemarker uses twitter so you can update your gas mileage from the pump, so I used it for that.
- chrisofspades
Before I had the BB, I used it all the time to post updates. Now I use UberTwitter to post but I still have select folks' updates come to me via SMS. Just easier to keep track of friends that way.
- pea
As an interim to better Push Twitter apps, yes. Though why @replies don't get sent to me is a bloody mystery? >:-S

- Mike Doeff

I use it, yup. I get updates from my local newspaper sent via SMS and the occasional person who I find entertaining/interesting (@badbanana right now).
- Mitch
Rarely. If I'm in a spot where there's nothing else to do, yes
- LANjackal
No. I don't use Twitter on my phone because I'd get charged for everything. Plus a laptop keyboard wins over a phone keyboard.
- Spidra Webster
no, sms is the most expensive form of communication that can be purchased i pay $5 for 200 sms msgs a month and even the $20 per month unlimited plan is a ripoff... SMS should be inlcluded in your plans... #attfail
- Chris Heath
sort of. I use a free SMS API key from Zeep Mobile to send Tweets to my own web server via the Zeep Mobile shortcode. from there my Twitter OAuth credential is employed to post the tweet to Twitter, it also gets sent via OMB protocol to different servers such as army.twit.tv and identi.ca and it goes out from my site as RSS. three of these arrive at FriendFeed, which annoys everyone.
- Brian Hendrickson
No need with SimplyTweet's push notifications on the iPhone. Although on very rare occasions I use SMS to update via HelloTxt.
- Grey Drane
from BuddyFeed
No. Not available in Sweden i think?
- Svartling
No, not available in Belgium. I would have used it not to update, but to be instantly notified of @ and direct replies. Now the iPhone has push functionalities I have no longer a need for Twitter SMS in Belgium anymore.

- Paul Kinlan
Nope.
- Kol Tregaskes

- Michael
Yes and it serves as insurance in the unlikely event that I’m ever arrested or otherwise in trouble in a strange place. SMS – to SMS can be slow and unreliable between some U.S. carriers (T-Mobile to Sprint, for example) whereas SMS-to-Twitter is more reliable. Last month I was on a trackless trolley, on my way to meet a friend. When the trolley broke down, I sent an SMS-to-Twitter and at the same time sent an SMS directly to my friend. He received the Twitter message first.
- A Mitchell
Cool! I suspect SMS may one day in the not-so-distant future become obsolete as everyone starts using smartphones and the statstream.
- Grey Drane
from IM
No. Not available in Belgium.

Pre-Order Snow Leopard at Amazon "Amazon has begun taking pre-orders for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. It is currently priced at $29 for the upgrade. However, the upgrade is only for current Leopard users. There is also no official release date but is expected sometime in September." - http://www.livecrunch.com/2009...

Will the snow leopard installer check your system to see if you have leopard installed? Will it ask to verify via install disk?
- Steven (optionshiftk)
Historically, Apple never checks anything (except hardware capability) before an install.

There's very few details about this so I'm not too sure. The email from Amazon did mention that "Tiger & earlier OS users will need to purchase either versions of the upgraded Mac Box Set."
