Two weeks ago, many of you began providing suggestions for translation industry professionals to follow on twitter. Thank you for all the suggestions you made here on the T&I Business Blog and also in many translation-related LinkedIn Groups. Fortunately, some people have begun creating directories that make it much easier to identify and follow these lists of translation professionals.

I do not yet appear on all these lists, but you can follow me here: @AdamWooten
The list started in response to a Localization World conference presentation by Kathleen Bostick of Lionbridge, and you can see some of her recommended twitter resources here. Other good related posts include "Twitters, Tweets, and Translation Buzz into Global Business" on Global Watchtower and "Twitter and Web Globalization" on Global by Design.

I invite translators to follow me @janinelibbey.
We're getting more into Facebook so I'd love to know how many translators and translation companies have pages where we could become fans. Look for our page: P & L Translations or tell me about your organization's page so that I can become a fan!
