Last week, while talking about how I started learning Spanish in the 1990s, I had a little side note about technology. That got me thinking: Have you ever stopped to appreciate how technology has changed the way translators work?
How has technology changed the way you work? Are you an old-school translator who had to adapt and learn on the go, or did you get started more recently, when all these tools were already available for you to us? Let me know what it’s been like for you as you’ve evolved in your career while making use of technology.
