As a matter of fact also the Gmail Blog guys themselves say that: "It's not quite the universal translators we're so fond of from science fiction, but thanks to Google Translate, it's an exciting step in the right direction." A free and handy service like this could help having the "taste" of the conversation, and not (for now...) to write to your over-ocean boss Nassim,

Don't dare to use it to translate serious materials, since you might find yourself in bizarre situations in front of your clients... There are good services nowadays for fast translations - made by human translators (such as myself!). One I recommend (and belong to) is OneHourTranslation. When you translate emails there you can be sure you get good quality results to work with. It’s Okay as long you use it to translate SPAM.

I actually just translated something (spam naturally) and it worked perfectly. How cool. Could this eventually overcome language barriers altogether? Nice!
