On Wednesday, January 25 at 12 noon US Eastern/New York Time (you can use The World Clock to convert to your time zone), Eve Bodeux, Michelle Bradley and I will be doing a free half-hour question and answer conference call about translation and the business of translation. You can connect to the call by phone using a US toll number or by Skype for free. Ask us anything! Well, at least anything related to the translation industry. To read more details or to submit a question, please see the Speaking of Translation website. We’ll select some of your questions to answer during the live call. To receive the call instructions, send a blank e-mail to speakingoftranslation@gmail.com and you’ll receive an auto-response with the call-in number and the Skype instructions. Hope to see you there! We’ll also post a free recording of the call, so feel free to submit a question even if you cannot make the live session.
Hi Corinne,
Please forgive my complete ignorance of US geography, but the world time clock gives time by city – could you give me an example of a city which uses US Eastern time? That way I can work out what time it will be here in France when the call is held!
Many thanks,
Caroline
Hi Caroline, thanks for your comment! You’re the one who should be forgiving me for being so US-centric! In my defense, I live in Colorado so I also get to criticize New Yorkers for thinking that it’s all about them 🙂 But for example, New York is in the US Eastern Time zone. I’ll change it in the post as well; if you go with New York time you’ll be good. Don’t quote me on this, but I think it’s 6PM Central European time because you’re usually 8 hours ahead of Colorado.
Thanks Corinne, you’re right, that does make it 6pm our time. Unfortunately that’s a time of day I really can’t make (I know you’re a Mum too so I’m sure you understand!). Will there be a recording available of the call afterwards?
Surely I will never pass this trend. Isabel Marant Sneakers so far is my favorite.
