Popjisyo.com My friend Pat's wife Sumika found this amazing site called Popjisyo.com where you can give it a webpage in Japan (or English) and it will display it such that if you hover the mouse over any word a definition will pop up. AMAZING!!

Popjisyo would be pronunced Pop Jisho or in other words Pop Dictionary.

Pop-jisyo is indeed incredibly useful...
Less compatible but slightly better (by my rather subjective standards) is Rikai: http://www.rikai.com
And btw, since we are on the topic of translations, time for a bit of shameless self-promotion: the quick n dirty cgi hack I wrote to bridge keitai mail with Jim Breen's WWWJDIC ( http://ryouko.imsb.nrc.ca/~j
breen/wwwjdic.html
) is now pretty much officially out of alpha phase and damn convenient if you tend to exchange keitai mails with people who have little regards for your kanji-reading limitations: http://www.unknowngenius.com
/blog/archives/000213.html
it will probably soon move over to Jim's server (as soon as I have time to tidy up the code some more and send it to him).

oops... [ e ]

it seems the evil line-breaker script doesn't like long URLs (and I completely forgot to put hrefs tags): be careful to stick back all the pieces before use of the above links...
