I've got a page set up on iGoogle that has various back and forth translators 
between different languages I know or am interested in.  It's pretty quick and 
easy, adding a Rev interface wouldn't save me much, I don't think.  

But I was interested in graphical interfaces for simple vocabulary, nouns and 
verbs, ala the First 1000 Words series.  And beyond would be nice, of course.  
It would be a simple project to start, and a long one to do right, I think. 

Thanks
Mark
