Hi,

Personally I do not like websites that offer machine translation. The sheer existence of such a button suggests a human translation, as I expect the content of a website to be man-made. This annoyance applies to engadget and various other sites.

Having a rough understanding of a language (e.g. Dutch in my case), I prefer the original text over a machine translation, and finding that a website played a trick on me is really annoying.

With Google Chrome offering a machine translation for all sites, I think this will eventually take care of itself. Give web browsers another generation and this will be quasi-standard. In the meantime, I'd suggest manually installing a toolbar ...

Thanks for the notice, we'll look into this ... maybe we'll find a way to give google a hint. If you come across something to do that, just drop a line.
