Musings from an overworked translator

Congratulations on 300 issues of the Tool Box Journal May 23, 2019

Jost Zetzsche sent out his 300th edition of the Tool Box Journal last night. That is indeed an amazing achievement, and I would like to take the time to congratulate him and thank him for all of his valuable contributions to the translation industry. He makes translation technology easier to understand and is an effective go-between between us and the toolmakers.

The ATA website had this to say about Jost in their article about awarding him Honorary Membership (the photo is also from the ATA website):

“Jost is the industry’s leading translation technology consultant and a published author on various aspects of translation. His computer guide for translators, A Translator’s Tool Box for the 21st Century, is now in its 13th edition, and his technical newsletter for translators goes out to more than 11,000 translation and interpreting professionals. In 2012, Penguin published his co-authored Found in Translation, a book about translation and interpreting for the general public. His most recent publication, Translation Matters, is a collection of 81 essays about translators and translation technology collected over the past 15 years.”

Congratulations, Jost! We look forward to another 300 editions.
