And another cool extension for practising your reading skills is Furigana Injector, which you can get here: http://code.google.com/p/furigana-injector/ I did the German translation for this tool. :) I’m still surprised about how many Japanese-learning people don’t know about this great tool!

It has OS level support for translating japanese via wwwjdict. This is great for websites as well as the items in dropdown menus and almost any text in any application. Not completely free but wel worth it. I frequently use a tool on OSX called Language Aid. It has OS level support for translating japanese via wwwjdict.

I use Rikaichan almost daily and my Japanese skills are beginner level at best. That and <a href="http://babelfish.yahoo.com/" rel="nofollow">Babel Fish</a> will help you glean a lot of information from Japanese language sites. They are not perfect but they do come in handy!
