Language Resources

The Keyboard Company can take care of your keyboard needs in almost any language. We can personally recommend the service and the products, because we use them.

Altavista Babelfish translates phrases or web pages from English to Spanish, French, German, Italian and Portuguese - of course it's not perfect (as you'll find if you reverse the translations) but it's free and fun.

Wordmap. You have to use this to understand its power. It's the very best way to search for information when you are not quite sure of the concept you are heading towards. Wordmap gets you there, and allows you to associate concepts and search the internet intelligently. Awesome.
