Translating a title for a block view - How I did it.

I just spent several hours trying to track this solution down and finally came upon a solution. Figured I'de put a little how to here as a reminder and to share, as there were many similar issues throughout the drupal.org site.

The issue:

I'm working on a multilingual site for a client. 

I was creating a view so that I would have a block for my front page of some recent news items.
I'm using localization/translation/i18n modules that are fairly standard.

Surveying the survey and GMap modules

Recently I've had the chance to build two small sites based around certain modules. survey.rabble.ca and access.tao.ca

The first was rabble.ca. They were setting up a survey with an online service called surveymonkey and the survey module popped into my head so I suggested we build a much nicer custom looking one using the survey module in drupal. The other motive here was to get them used to working in drupal as we've more projects down the road that will be using it.
