Not a problem! The other threads have pointed out the disadvantages, but I think it can be a very useful tool at times for a quick translation, as you say. It allows those with little or no Spanish at least to get the gist of it, even if the translation is grammatically less than perfect, or loses a bit of sense in the process.
If you want to use it to translate INTO Spanish, it's best to write it as simply as you can in English, as more complicated stuff, or ways of saying things that have more than one meaning, can be mistranslated.
For instance... when talking about football 'matches' it translates 'matches' as the ones you use to light a fire with... ie. 'fosferos' rather than 'partidos'
