Translation Broke?

posted in Google |

Update 11/21/07

I just got word that the English to English translate function has been disabled and it doesn’t look like it’s going to come back.

Original Post follows: 

Just noticed today that Google won’t allow you to translate a page from English to English any more. I get a response:

Translation from English into English is not supported.

Please choose from the following:

  • Back to Language Tools
  • See original page

    • Is it just me, or did this happen a long time ago?

    If you liked this post please buy me a beer. Thanks.

      I’m still waiting for the Gibberish to English translation.

      Do you click that to check for cloaking? Doesn’t work as long as the Webmaster is savvy. You’ll catch poor man’s cloaking only.

      Yup. It’s just one of several simple checks I do to weed out the cloaks, other methods are available and probably better. But you know the types of stuff we see over at GWHG, they are mostly your run of the mill poor-man’s stuff.
