MM134: Google Translate App, Twitter GeoLocation, MSN Redesign

Google Translate has been a free, very useful tool for quite some time now. It’s not always perfect, but Google just made it MUCH BETTER for Google and Android phones. Literally, instead of having to type in a phrase to be converted, you simply speak what you want to be translated into the phone and Google’s phone responds in an audible translation (or vice versa)! It can also listen to others’ voices and translate them for you!

SXSW starts today (Friday, March 12) and one of the predominant themes will be GeoLocation – expect to hear more about this in 2010 with smart phones, the iPad, netbooks and every mobile gadget. So what’s the news? Twitter and Facebook are both adopting geolocation into your status updates and tweets and it has some controversy around privacy issues (do you want people knowing your coordinates while you tweet or do you find this a cool new feature). I want to know your comments – so leave them below!

MSN.com is about to unveil their newly designed website with over 30 new changes and we show you the top 3 coolest changes that MSN has adopted to finally compete with other websites like Yahoo and Google.
