ActiveResource problem with get req.

since i can not find any documentation on this stuff that helps any i'm taking a stab at doing this...

    @gapiTranslate = ActiveResource::Connection.new("http:// translate.google.com", ActiveResource::Formats[:json])     @gapiTranslate.get("/translate_t?q=hello&v=1.0&sl=en&tl=it")

and it keeps returning INVALID JSON STRING in the browser... am i making the request to good incorrectly or something... is this even the right way to achieve what i hope it looks like im trying to do?
