    Ditto!! :( I'm starting to forget English, Spanish and Dutch words. Must be old age or perhaps brain overload. :banghead Hopefully they'll keep it due to demand, otherwise we will have to use another free good one.

    I don't know how its possible any more to stop kids cheating on their homework:confused Practically any question you type into google has the answer published somewhere,any facts can be found in an instant.

    I suppose you can't cheat on art homework or a story in English but that's about it.

    For others I guess you have to ban them from using computers or watch them as they work?

    Glad I can't breed,due to being ugly:-D

    I guess no one read the link, only responded to the first post.
    The API is closed, not translate.

    Hi

    Google Translate as in the web app is not closing and they cannot afford to close it with Bing and Bablefish being available free to translate languages, all they are closing afaik is the API that allows 3rd party developers to create an "app" (webpage app or iphone, android etc app) that uses Google's Translate service.

    Personally I think the Bing Translate is good and its API is HERE free still.
