Google has now added Bengali to their transliteration service along with three other Indian languages - Gujarati, Marathi and Nepali. Google already provides transliteration services for Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu.
Transliteration allows users to type words phonetically using an English keyboard. Such as you type 'aami' to get আমি and so on. I was very much eager to have Bengali transliteration service from Google, so that I can sometimes write in my own mother tongue. Besides the transliteration labs page, there is also a iGoogle gadget available. You can try the gadget below.
Update: Now you can use Bengali transliteration on any website. Drag this bookmarklet to your bookmarks toolbar.
[অ Type in Bengali]
Now when you want to enter text in Bengali on any website, click that bookmarklet. Wait until the message "Transliteration is enabled ..." is displayed. Now click on any textbox to type Bengali!
I am already using it in GMail Chat.
Look here for more information and detailed instruction.
