Nowadays, we only need to be willing to communicate. to communicate!Bruno
Whitney,
There’s a Google Labs feature that auto translates foreign text for you when you receive emails. I leave it on all the time just in case someone emails me in another language (usually it winds up coming from someone in Israel in Hebrew).
It’s a life saver and enables us to communicate without borders. Speaking of, I wonder if there is a resource dedicated to how to communicate without borders. Hmmm, Googling now (in multiple languages).
It seems you have a lot of Brazilian readers :)
Yup! One more Brazilian reader here :)

A few more, and you can come to Brazil :)
How amazing this would be…
