This blog is run by two experts in the field of translation and localization. One of them is also<br />

running the aforementioned ​Thoughts on Translation blog. On this blog you can actually listen<br />

through industry conferences.<br />

translation quality and the controversial idea of competitive bidding in the translation industry.<br />
