In an ever globalizing world, there will always be a situation where a follower on your circle (or someone that you are currently following) posts in a different language. If this is in a business context, such as a customer complaint or a message from another company, fast and relevant translation may be crucial to determine the scope of the situation. While it is still relatively simple to copy and paste the text into Google Search to try and find a translator site, there is an even easier method if you are using Google Chrome. Simply look up the Google Translate for Google Plus Extension in the Chrome Web Store and install the extension. Once this dialogue box pops up, this means that the extension is ready for use. Google Plus posts in other languages will now be automatically translated to english. Note that it is always important to double check translated text, preferably with a human, as machine translated texts are never perfect. Do not make any important decisions based on translated text!
