This is the version with local translation of web pages. It looks like they translate between Bulgarian, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish.

I tried a French language page, and the translation to English seemed excellent. It was fun to watch the text change on the page as it was translated.

Finally, that extension for Google Translate was really clunky and it was weird that this is coming so late while Chrome had a polished integration for such a long time already.

Not wanting to run it via a cloud service was probably a big factor, assuming google translate goes via the cloud.

Google has no qualms about sucking up all your data.

Google also has no qualms about you using Firefox. They pay Mozilla $450 mil a year to insure it stays this way.

I don't claim to read minds or have inside information, but there's no doubt in my mind that this is largely a $450mil annual hedge against getting antitrust'd by the DOJ.

Sorry, that argument no longer flies.

Goggle payments have done nothing but go up as FireFox market share has done nothing but go down --- to the point of insignificance, now around 3% world wide --- less than Opera.

Paying a huge sum of money for a miniscule market share doesn't provide any reasonable hedge --- as evidenced by the fact that Google is in the middle of an anti-trust lawsuit and FireFox has played virtually no role.

Not sure where you’re getting your Opera figures from, but I’m seeing 4x Firefox than Opera, even with Firefox typically shimming away Google Analytics.

These obviously float up and down some over time but Firefox has been consistently under 3% globally for a while now.
