TransOver Review

Translate word (or text selection) from any language to the language of your choice by pointing or clicking at it.

Also you can (enable in options):
- text-to-speech
- reverse translate: from your own language to the language of your choice
- type and translate in a popup
- copy translation to clipboard

SECURITY EXPLAINED

"Your data on all websites":
TransOver needs to be able to read any word on a page - "Your data ..." - in order to translate it. On any website you want it working - "... on all websites".

"Your tabs and browsing activity":
Required for language autodetect, so that TransOver knows what language to translate from (details http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/tabs.html#method-detectLanguage).
