Google Demo Slam: Translate Beat Box

Okay I found this really interesting its called google translator. I think that this could be very useful when emailing parents of students who do not speak English. I know that most language teachers will not approve but I think it could be really useful in communicating. It allows you to send a message in another language. And allows the parent to send a response in their native language and then you can translate that so you know what to do. This i one thing that I have been worried about in teaching because I want to teach in Arizona where there is a higher rate of Spanish speakers.
