List of 85 translator-related blogs

Filed under web presence 

There’s been a huge increase in the number of translation blogs over the past year or so. When I started blogging (very sporadically) in 2006, it felt like there were very few of us out there - now there’s a vast community and it’s very exciting to be a part of it!

Here’s a list of translation blogs that I follow from my feed reader. Some of these are more active than others and there’s a definite bias towards my own language combinations of French, Spanish, German and English. But if they’re in my feed reader, it’s because I like reading them.

I normally prefer to synthesise this kind of information before posting it to my blog. So I normally only include certain blogs in my blogroll, for example, or I run occasional blog round-ups. But my list of blogs to write about has gotten so long that I don’t know where to start! So until I catch up, here’s the raw data - happy reading.

    :) Thank you very much for the publicity. I am in a lax state with my blog nowadays, since I have been sick for quite a long time. I started the Spanish version back in 2005, and we were very few then, you are quite right. :) Good luck with your blog!

    I am tickled pink that you have included my name on your list. Also, nice to share a spot with Zesty Dormouse. This is a small world indeed! I’ll definitely bookmark your blog.

    The few links I clicked took me to blogs with no postings for months. I guess I’ll have to go through the complete list. Thanks for sharing!
