2. Follow me on Twitter

Any translators out there use Twitter? I've been using this service for about 2 weeks and find it a great way to pose translation questions I have, as well as to interact with others and let others know when more content has been added to the site.

If you've got a Twitter account, you can find me at www.twitter.com/clintT. Click on the "Follow" link to keep updated on what's happening with translation.

"Social networking is in its infancy and I'm guessing it will become as widespread as email."
