Technophilia: Get Lost in Translation Sites

(a great review of web-based translation services)
Technophilia: Get Lost in Translation Sites: "The web makes it possible to search for documents written in every conceivable language, but what if you don't actually know the language you find that special somethin' written in? No worries—there are plenty of online translation services that can give you anything from just a good idea to a complete translation of what you're looking at."

Free documentaries.org

Free documentaries.org: " At freedocumentaries.org we believe strongly that in order to have a true democracy, there has to be a free flow of easily available information. Unfortunately, many important perspectives, opinions and facts do not make it to our televisions or cinemas (you can watch movies in our media category if you want to know why)."

YouMail

About YouMail: "We created YouMail because we believe basic cell phone voicemail is, quite frankly, lame. We were annoyed by a bunch of stuff, like: * How come we could personalize every aspect of our cell phone - like ringtones - but couldn't change a greeting for a specific caller? * Why did we have to listen to ten voicemail just to get to the one that mattered? * How come if we accidentally deleted a voicemail, we could never get it back? * Why couldn't we easily share or permanently save important voicemails, like a friend's drunk dial or a relative's engagement call? * Why does your phone tell you that you have a voicemail, but not who left them, when or how important they are? * Why do we have to sit through useless instructions all the time? * Why can't we automatically hang up on people who we don't want to talk to anymore? * Why do we have to record greetings at all? We want to just choose cool ones like ringtones! We could go on. The bottom line is simple. YouMail is about reinventing voicemail and making it a fun, powerful personal experience that you'll absolutely love. "
