[NPInfo] very cool translation web site

[Amy Kinzie ANP]

In searching the web tonight for patient teaching information on Type 1 DM for a Russian patient, I stumbled across a site that is very cool and easy to use. there is a block for entering text in english, and then the option to translate into a number of languages. I can envision being able to get more accurate responses to my questions or teachings by translating information on the spot during a visit (presuming a computer is available with internet access. 

check it out and see what you think....
