Learn a language and translate the internet

More and more companies are looking to hire applicants that can speak another language. This is especially true in the medical field where effective communication can be a matter of life or death. Don’t speak another language? Why not learn one to add to your marketability? There are lots of ways to learn a new language: books, classes, cds or podcasts you can listen to while driving. Duolingo is a free online application (currently is is in beta, but you can sign up to test it) that uses a game-like platform to learn a language. Why is it free? Because as you are learning the language and translating sample text, you are also translating web pages originally written in the language you are learning. The end result is you learning a language and greater access on the internet. Currently Spanish and German are offered and according to the website: French, Italian, and Chinese are coming later.
