Firefox Plugin: Hyperwords

Hyperwords is a great plugin for firefox. You can do with it many stuff. But what I liked most about it was the translate feature that translates pages on the fly – without opening a new window, right there on the same page.

For example, below is a news page in Russian. I have selected the paragraph and translated it into English. As you can see other parts of the website is still in Russian, and only the selected paragraph has been translated. Cool huh?

Here is a YouTube video of what more you can do with this plugin.

    This is just the sort of facility that makes me marvel at how the internet has brought the whole world closer together and made easy access to other cultures and languages possible like never before!

  2. Eva White says:

    Cool alright! What all languages does it translate?

  3. David Marx says:

    The translation tool seems great, two questions beg to be asked though. How many languages does this plugin support, and how much resources will be used by this plugin? The more plugins I am installing onto Firefox the slower and more sluggish it seems to become. How can I check how much resources Firefox is using?

    Nice plugin. With this plugin, the language barrier will not be a problem any more on the internet.

    Firefox and its plugins make IE look a poor relation in every way. Another one to add to the list.

    Great plugin, but I think it is still not perfect since google translate very well.

    Its a really cool plugin. Though I don’t have much use for it, it could be good fun to try. I love firefox, apple and google for the great products and services they come up with.
