I had the pleasure of contributing to the event and of attending one of them - very good range of topics. If I had been able to take the day off I would have accessed more of the presentations in real time. Great coordination Drew!

---

While not being able to attend each session for obvious reasons (I am thinking of taking a day off next year!), what I saw and heard being discussed was extremely useful for all translators. Thanks for organising this interesting and relevant event, and for the possibility of downloading individual presentations on demand!

---

I couldn't attend, but I wish I could watch the videos on demand. However, those who couldn't attend can't watch them, even if they have a paid membership. It does not make sense.

---

Great event! I learned a lot.

Thank you, ProZ.com, for this wonderful, FREE even, that could be attended practically by anyone in or interested in language services. As far as I know, it is the ONLY one of its kind worldwide! That, in itself, is a wonderful offering for all of us in the profession. All presentations provide a state-of-the-art VISION and tools that may be applied immediately. This effort is really admirable. As a presenter and and attendee, I thank the opportunity of bringing my content to others and learning a lot from so many people! Thank you.

I loved the session on interpreting with a tablet and also the one about the Burmese language. I took the time to review my Proz profile too! Thanks for your professionalism!

Time	From	To	Content
13:06 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	You mean direct clients, Manuela?
13:07 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	I mean the one who'll pay for an ebook...
13:08 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	And, oher then that, what can we do to differentiate our income?
13:08 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	Right
13:09 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	So, offering training could be one.
13:09 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	How about adding service type sto the list of services we offer?
13:10 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	This article could help: http://wiki.proz.com/wiki/index.php/Services
13:11 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Writing does not seem to me to be the most clever way of trying to generate extra income. Too many people who work at too low prices.
13:12 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	Like in translation ;-)
13:12 Jun 6, 2014	starlightaloud: 1624756	All	even lower!
13:12 Jun 6, 2014	Lucia Leszinsky: 855539	All	True
13:13 Jun 6, 2014	Platon Danilov: 1882079	All	Lucia has provided a great list to consider. Does anybody has an experience in any of these services?
13:14 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	"Low" in writing means "no pay". Lots of people are writing for free. Really, wanting to be a writer is one of the worst career moves you could make.
13:14 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	I had to leave some minutes, could you resend the list?
13:15 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	The list is found via the link in Lucia's message.
13:15 Jun 6, 2014	Henry Dotterer: 1	All	ok!
13:16 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	By the way, "writing" is NOT in that list.
13:17 Jun 6, 2014	Platon Danilov: 1882079	All	But there is Copywritting
13:17 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Typesetting is no-go too. Not because it isn't paid, but normally translators are overqualified for typesetting.
13:17 Jun 6, 2014	Peter Motte: 30753	All	Copywriting is only one facet of writing. At the same time it's a rather broad field.
13:18 Jun 6, 2014	starlightaloud: 1624756	All	what do you think about offering tour guide services? that's one way of diversification
13:18 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	And, personally, I type enough;-)
13:18 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	and a way to go out and meet people
13:18 Jun 6, 2014	starlightaloud: 1624756	All	yes, no typing included :)
13:19 Jun 6, 2014	Manuela Ribecai: 1214732	All	but the hourly rate???
