Back to Blogging

Work on the long overdue relaunch of modilingua.com is still going on in the backend, but I thought I’d take the opportunity to go ahead and set the blog up. For technical reasons, the English and German posts will be published in two separate blogs here at modilingua.com because a bilingual website like this makes it necessary to do a double installation of Wordpress. So you might want to take note of the German blog, as it could contain entirely different contents.

Both blogs are to act as a filing cabinet of sorts for thoughts on the daily grind of translation. A special emphasis will be placed on freelancing and SOHOs. Because I have also always worked in a Mac network, readers will likely be able to find some hardware/software discussions and tips here from time to time.

A word about me: I published a personal blog between 2000 and 2005. I believe it was the first German-English “mono(b)log” in Germany back then. With the modilingua.com weblog, I’m now breaking professional blogging ground for the first time ever, i.e. writing about topics that are directly linked to my professional activities as a translator and editor. Enjoy!
