I would like to use the google input tool to search in a non-English language from Google Chrome's omni bar or type a part of an URL in a non-English language. How can I enable this?
This feature is only available in Chrome OS

I'm trying to browse this url: googleweblight.com/?lite_url=http://www.google.com
but I'm not able to, since I got:
Transcoding test failed:
This page could not be transcoded due to technical issues.
The problem is that I need to copy paste every search result I get from google search page into googleweblight.com/?lite_url=[here]
Why am I not able to use googleweblight for google? How can I make my urls go to googleweblight version directly, without copy and paste and not using a device emulator in user agent?
On Firefox, I am using the UAControl add-on to change my browser's User-Agent to Mobile Safari, and it gives me the mobile version of Google Search, which by default has all search result URLs pointing via GoogleWebLight.
In fact, since I didn't want the URLs to be redirected via GoogleWebLight as such, I had to write a GreaseMonkey script to convert them back to 'regular' (direct) URLs. Maybe you can modify it to do the opposite on the Google Search page, if you're not comfortable with the User-Agent switch approach. I believe you can utilize something like TamperMonkey if you're on a different browser such as Google Chrome.
I've developed an app that uses the Google Speech API.
But I can't find the languages list that it can recognize.
I've been googling but I can't find info about.
Anyone knows a link?
thanks.
Google voice search api support these language --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Voice_Search
Also you can check which languages are actually supported by going your android phone's Settings>voice input & output settings > voice recognizer settings

I am developing an extension for chrome, which sets a search engine as default with out any UI interaction(Edit search Engines). Is it possible to develop this kind of extensions. Is there any way such that I can override or use some functions in chrome source code.
Thanks

Currently, it is not possible. The closest you can do right now is use the experimental omnibox API to register your own custom keyword.
Feel free to file a feature request at http://crbug.com if you would like to see an API like this in Chrome. Depending on your use case, there could be a better way doing what you wanted. Changing search engines isn't favourable without user intervention..
I noticed that Google maps is providing directions in my local language (hungarian) when I am using google chrome, but English language directions when I am using it from IE.
I would like to know how chrome figures this out and how can I write code that is always returning directions on the user's language.
HTTPrequests` include an Accept-Language header which is set according to your locale preferences on most OS/browser combinations. Google uses a combination of that, the local domain you use (eg 'google.it', 'google.hu') and any preferences you set with the Preferences link in the home page to assign a language to your pages.
It's likely that IE is misrepresenting your locale to Google Maps, whereas Chrome has correctly guessed it. You can change IE's locale by changing your national settings in Control Panel, while Chrome's locale can be changed in (wrench menu) > Preferences.
I could be way off but I think it's fairly safe to assume that google, is using gears.
