Live Translator: Online Translator from Microsoft

Quick and useful online translator from Microsoft. Not only you can use it as a regular text translator but also as a browser for translating web pages. Text translations are quite straightforward, simply copy and paste text, select from/to langauges and you’re done.

When it comes to web page translation you get a bit more. Webpage translations will be presented in a Bilingual View (see image below), with original copy on the left and translated version on the right.
