Fridaygram: translation birthday, photos in trees, giants on streets

Scott Knaster, editor of the Google Developers Blog, shares a "living in the future" moment by highlighting the impressive capabilities of Google Translate, which celebrated its sixth anniversary and now translates text across 64 languages, including translating the equivalent of one million books daily. The blog post also covers the LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph in Charlottesville, Virginia, which uniquely displays images among trees to raise environmental awareness, and the spectacle of giant marionettes in Liverpool commemorating the Titanic's centenary, both of which provide visual experiences beyond words. Concluding with a nod to the playful spirit of "Fridaygram" posts, designed for casual enjoyment rather than technical insight, Knaster mentions that April 27, 2012, was declared Passive Voice Day, encouraging readers to embrace the lighter side of language.
