Google Translate now handles uploaded documents
Google quietly added the option sometime int he last few days. there's not a ton of information about the new feature available, but it appears to handle TXT, HTML, XLS, DOC, and PDF files reasonably well. It choked on an OpenOffice Sheet ODS file I tried to upload.
The results are spit out in HTML format, so if you upload a spreadsheet you won't get a translated, downloadable spreadsheet in return. Instead you'll get an HTML table. But this isn't a bad start. I wouldn't be surprised if Google eventually adds the ability to open translated documents in Google Docs.

Believe it or not, Atari have just released a bunch of old games on their own website. These aren't clones, these aren't even 'loving interpretations' -- these are the real thing, remade by Atari themselves. This comes as part of a re-launch for the Atari website which includes an online store.
I warn you, if you read on, this might turn into more than just a mere ten-minute time-waster.
