Since my English proficiency is limited, I often use Kingsoft PowerWord. Of course, Google's online translator is also one of my bookmarked tools. It can be seen that the former is desktop-level software while the latter is network-level. The combination of the two shows us one direction of software development - gradually moving from desktop to the network. The "Google Kingsoft PowerWord" launched by Google is guiding a large number of Kingsoft PowerWord users towards the Internet. This could also be considered as Kai-Fu Lee's move towards "Google localization." From Google Pinyin Input Method to Google Kingsoft PowerWord, it can be seen that Google's current actions are mainly aimed at quickly occupying the remaining desktop-level market.
