Jonathan 'Wolf' Rentzsch has created a Google Cache Bookmarklet that can be placed in your favorites and used when you want to find the cached version of a page on your desktop. His version doesn't seem to work, but Fuse has made one that works.
Sadly, my site was last indexed by Google in March!! They used to reindex it every 24-48 hours. Have any other bloggers seen their Google indexing decrease in frequency too?

So why not make your own? Here's my quick guide to making bookmarklets that "act" on a web page:
<a href="javascript:location.href='http://www.example.com/whatever?url='+location.href">Example</a>
Just replace "http://www.example.com/whatever?url=" with the equivelant for the tool you want. For example, to translate the page to English, replace it with "http://translate.google.com/translate?u=".
If you'd rather open the new page in a new window, use this instead:
<a href="javascript:open('http://www.example.com/whatever?url='+location.href)">Example</a>
Tell me if you have success making any. It really isn't very hard.
