After The Register said that it urgently needed Babelfish to translate hot chip stories breaking on Japanese Web sites, we were pointed to a site which has a fair crack at the problem. Jim Breen's WWWJDIC server, allows Japanese text to be typed or pasted into a box. The software then goes away for a little think and comes back with a translation. So many thanks to our reader for pointing out this useful utility which will give us the answers we need from Happy Cat and the other Japanese sites we frequent. ®
