Google has added again some new languages... and the list of languages is now one big mess. They really should go graphical I think.

Is it just me or they've added 3 more tabs on top ;
Translated Search,
Dictionary,
Tools.

(And the design looks different too.)

Is it new?

The translated search and dictionary were added long ago, but I don't know about the tools, I saw the gadget somewhere already so it can t be too new.

Last time I was on translate I thought they were new too, but when I posted here was told otherwise.

Finally, Dutch is in the language pairs.
Yahoo (i.e. babelfish) had it already for years....

Art-one, lol so I am not the only dutch one here :P I read about it on webwereld.nl, probably you know it then...

Still I would prefer dutch-english-german-french language pairs... can't use dutch-english language pairs for much things...

[offtopic]I *hate* the Full Name input field... somehow my school laptop had David Mulder – GreatSlovakia.com remembered and at home I just use David Mulder... great!!! Well nevermind that, but sometimes I would prefer a log in system[/offtopic]

[David, also, please use the same name whereever you log-in.

And in case you want to "log out", you can just empty the name field and hit submit. This will not generate a post (because empty names can't post) but it will set the cookie to an empty value. (Reversel, you can also "log-in" by entering your name, plus a blank message, and hitting submit, as again no message will be generated.)]
