Automatic translation is not only fun, it is also quite useful. Use it to learning Spanish, to help you draft that email in French, or to understand what people are saying on that web page in German.

In some cases, it is useful to be able to see an "instant" translation of what you type, instead of having to click on that "submit" button, wait for the result, modify your text, click that "submit" button again... Have a look at this page that does exactly that, using Ajax for the front-end, and making calls to the Google translation services:
