Sick of sites that force you to sit through a Flash splash screen? Now Google's offering a "Skip Intro" link to save you that annoyance. Plus, Google's also offering to translate your queries into other languages. More on both, below.

A search for yuasa france, for example, returns a result that adds "Skip Intro" link next to the listing title. Clicking on the link will bypass the splash screen and take the searcher directly to the home page. Here is a screen capture:
