Delicious Updates Viewing Options; Adds StumbleUpon-Like Feature

Social bookmarking site Delicious has updated the ability to filter viewing options - plus added a new way to browse your bookmarks that is very StumbleUpon-like.

Delicious also gave the option menu treatement to the tags section on the right sidebar in “My Bookmarks.”

Last but absolutely not least, there’s a new option to “Browse these bookmarks.” Again, this is for your own bookmarks. When you click it, you’re taken to the most recent bookmark - but there’s a toolbar frame across the top. Click arrows to browse through your bookmarks. This is very much like the new StumbleUpon - except your just browsing your own bookmarks.

Google Adds Chat to Translator Toolkit

Google Adds Chat to Translator Toolkit

While machine-generated translation is a worthwhile goal, it’s not always perfect. Google is attempting to make up for the gap by adding chat to its Translator Toolkit.

The chat works like IM in Gmail. You can type messages to your contacts and groups directly from Translator Toolkit regarding questions you may have about a translation issue.

If you’re not interested in using chat, you can turn it off in the Translator Toolkit settings.
