I was wondering what online translators seem to work the best in terms of ease of use and also accuracy. Google, Yahoo, Babylon? Any others? I'm sure some here have translated Russian and Ukrainian, just looking to learn from your experiences.
Thanks.

I've used most of them from time to time and found that they do their job okay - but don't expect a perfect translation.

i use both google and yahoo. although both of them are pretty enough, i guess google is a little bit better.

Just wanted to agree with labworks that http://babelfish.yahoo.com/
is the best one I have came across.

Although if you study a foreign language in any depth or just
general linguistics you will find that computer translators
are not to be trusted.

You should be careful of babelfish. For german it does everything word for word with no account given for grammar or nuance.

English to German it would give for I am cold. Ich bin kalt. When you really want. Mir ist kalt. The other result means that you are sexually frigid.
