“Google Translate is the first Google service that uses this feature. If you use Google Chrome 11 Beta, Google Chrome 12 Dev/Canary or a recent Chromium build and visit Google Translate, you can click the voice input icon. Right now, this feature only works for English, so you need to select "English" from the list of input languages.”

Apparently Japanese is too hard for computers to understand.
ピーシーには日本語を分かるのが難しすぎそうです。 <- my attempt at it in Japanese.
What I would like someone who knows how to program computers to do someday is come up with a program that runs audio files through speech recognition software. You could try to use the data to automatically generate subtitles. I know you're going to ask me to translate this paragraph into Japanese too, but I'm afraid it's beyond my ability.
