Real-time translation can now be performed in a feed stream (not just in single post view). Using the bookmarklet (btw, you're previous version bookmarklet will auto-update), click to start auto translation each time you navigate to a new page ... With the user script, turn on auto-translate in Configuration as follows: autoTranslateEnabled = true; var autoTranslateRealtimeEnabled = true; ... In a feed stream, only the translation is shown, in a single post view both original text and translation shown. Note that some posts appear as a foreign language to the Google Translate API, sometimes triggered by simply by having a link or non-dictionary word in the text. So expect some false positives (highlighted in yellow, yet are essentially the same before and after translation) ... Original release ff post: http://friendfeed.com/friendf... - Micah Wittman

Thank you Micah. Well done again - zsafwan 

Thank you, zsafwan. - Micah Wittman

This is so awesome Micah. - metalerik

I thought one real-time release deserved another :) I spend time on experimental stuff like this and the FF team works on laying the foundation and from there building up. - Micah Wittman

Wow Micah! That is just awesome. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg from Android

nice work Micah - Keith - @tsudo

Thanks, Brian, metalerik, Keith. I'm just wondering if Google Translate has an API call limit, and if so per what (IP?) - a lot of people using this, with all the information flow, it could get interesting :) - Micah Wittman

Friendfeed just got its kinesthetic display boost. - Bernie Goldbach

Bernie, I'll take that as positive =) - Micah Wittman

Awesome! I wish a feature like this was built into browsers by default. - April Russo (app103)

I changed it from yellow to mint, so it doesn't clash with the yellow for comments made by people you follow, used in AJ's theme. Replaced it with rgb(220,255,205) - April Russo (app103)

Ah, good call, April. That's why I put the colour choice in Configuration :) - Micah Wittman

Miccah: you're the best, I'm loving it. btw Buenos Días - 'Like' robot (frɐnc)

Geweldig! Dat maakt het een stuk makkelijker. - Willem (@wim66) ☠

Glad it makes it easier, Willem. - Micah Wittman

Buenas tardes (too earlier for that?) Frac :) My Spanish has slipped away and got muddled with Russian for a while there. - Micah Wittman

Good to hear from you, Mohomed - thanks. - Micah Wittman

this is fantastic. so do I need to replace the old bookmarklet, or will it update on its own? - chrisofspades

chrisofspades, it's auto-updated - so you're good (if there's any doubt that the browser has cached the older version, clear cache as necessary). For archive of the previous version see http://wittman.org/project... - Micah Wittman

Is there any way there can be an option to have both original text and translation for at least the initial posts on stream pages? This is killing the links included in them. Take a look at my page to see what I mean: http://friendfeed.com/app103 - April Russo (app103)

April, yes, there shouldn't be much adjustment for me to make it an option. I get back you :) - Micah Wittman

SCRIPT UPDATE [v0.2.1] - Configuration option added: if var keepOriginalTextInRealtime = true, then the original title or comment is shown above the translation just as it is in single post view. Bookmarklets auto-update. Upgrade user scripts at http://wittman.org/project... - Micah Wittman

I have to set keepOriginalTextInRealtime = true, because the links in the translated title aren't clickable - Willem (@wim66) ☠

great! .. now how does the bookmarklet support Chrome? .. i mean, even Blogger wont work on Chrome .. . - Petr Buben

Petr, which version of Chrome on which platform do have working with this script? - Micah Wittman

i do not have anything. i just looked at it, saw no mention of Chrome bkmklt, made a comment :] - Petr Buben from IM

Petr, right. I wasn't sure what you had meant. Gotcha. - Micah Wittman

Install page now has "Alternate configuration (keepOriginalTextInRealtime ON)" for user script and bookmarklet language versions http://wittman.org/project... - Micah Wittman

Miccah: thx for subscribing :) also, i just tested bookmarklet on Chrome it seems it's not working. - 'Like' robot (frɐnc)

Unfortunately, that's right, Franc. Chrome has significant problems with bookmarklets / user scripts that of even moderate complexity at this point. I'm hoping the Google team working on this improves support sooner than later. - Micah Wittman

SCRIPT UPDATE [v0.2.2] - Added var translateTitleOnlyInRealtime in Configuration. If set to true, only post titles will translate (not comments) in a realtime stream. Not all comments were being translated in real-time stream. Fixed. http://wittman.org/project... - Micah Wittman
