    Video Mail in a Blink! It's fun, it's easy and there's nothing to install Flash-based so no download and for Mac and PC. Free account allows for one-minute messages. Message receivers don't have to sign up to watch the message it seems. That's good. Teachers can send message to students and encourage them to continue and reply. This is especially nice for online learners and teachers. Students can send each other messages to practise speaking and listening. Speaking for a minute is probably not that scary :)

    I agree and have used eyejot quite a bit. They've made it more friendly in the past year. But the friendliest way to encourage students is to use Bubblejoy. http://www.bubblejoy.com/intro.php Pick an interesting ecard/frame your students will love! David http://eflclassroom.com

    Hello, I have been collecting resources that are useful for Latin and connecting later Latin authors to other disciplines on a scoop.it account. Even if you are not a Latin teacher you should check out scoop.it because I find it is a good way to share resources with students.

Google Translation Center: The World's Largest Translation Memory - GigaOM - 0 views

gigaom.com/...lds-largest-translation-memory

shared by James OReilly on 05 Aug 08 - Cached
  • Google is preparing to launch Google Translation Center
  • This is an interesting move, and it has broad implications for the translation industry, which up until now has been fragmented and somewhat behind the times, from a technology standpoint
  • Google has been investing significant resources in a multi-year effort to develop its statistical machine translation technology.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • Google Translation Center is a straightforward and very clever way to gather a large corpus of parallel texts to train its machine translation systems.
  • If Google releases an API for the translation management system, it could establish a de facto standard for integrated machine translation and translation memory, creating a language platform around which projects like Der Mundo can build specialized applications and collect more training data.
  • On the other hand, GTC could be bad news for translation service bureaus — especially those that use proprietary translation management systems as a way to hold customers and translators hostage.
  • For freelancers, GTC could be very good news; they could work directly with clients and have access to high quality productivity tools. Overall this is a welcome move that will force service providers to focus on quality, while Google, which is competent at software, can focus on building tools.
  • That strategy would also eliminate a potential conflict of interest
  • translation professionals are understandably wary of contributing to something that could put them out of work
  • as well as avoid channel conflicts with partners who will be their best advocates in selling to various clients
  • my guess is Google will make this a free tool for the translation industry to use, and it will figure the money part out later. It can afford to be patient
  • I remain convinced that a multilingual web will be a reality in a short time, and that a menagerie of tools and services will emerge over the next few years — some geared toward helping translators, some toward building translation communities, and others that make publishing multilingual sites and blogs easy and intuitive.
  • the web will begin translating itself, and within a short time

    Even though this is for learning to write better, I think the focus on word choice would make it an excellent educational game for learning English.

    I love 6 Traits of writing; NWREL has a new resource to encourage fun practice for the students who need it most: 5-9th grades; 3-4th can use w/adult assistance; check out this website; I want one!
