Translation tool.
With an international community like this we need a decent translation suite. One size fits all translators do not work. Or rather they work badly.I just came across this discussion about a Firefox tool called grease Monkey.
I have Google Translate and an Opera widget to translate. But what Opera browser and the community (and the mail come to that)needs now is a fine tuner to click an a word or phrase and retranslate it.

Does Opera already have something like this?
It would be unusual for Opera to be left behind by another browser development.
I hope someone is already working on this particular cutting edge. The only way to ensure that the world doesn't slip back into the dark ages of political control of mass media is to ensure that were proles get a chance to speak to people other people might want dead.
Look how the knives were out for Julian Assange.
When they come for me I want to be ready and waiting.
Will the secret police win against the internet?

Greasemonkey adds UserJS/UserCSS (also known as UserScripts) support to Firefox. Opera supports UserJS and UserCSS natively.
1. Right-click any blank area on the webpage you want to add UserJS/UserCSS to.
2. Click 'Edit Site Preferences' from the context menu.
3. Click Scripting tab (for UserJS) or Display tab (for UserCSS).
4. Click the Choose button and browse to the folder containing the UserJS/UserCSS.
How does this relate to translation anyway? Do you have a UserJS for translation?
If you need any help from me with regards to Opera, please make a comment on any of my blog posts.
