~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Announcing a celebration of ProZ.com's 10th anniversary: the site's sixth international conference, to be held from July 2-5, 2009 in Ohrid, Macedonia (FYROM).

Whether you are a long-standing ProZian or a new translator who wants to get up to speed quickly on the industry, you are invited to be a part of this historic celebration.

The event will feature a full array of industry-specific content, delivered by top speakers. But it will be more than just any ordinary translators' conference -- it will be a celebration of ten years of the global collaboration among translators.

And that is not all. In the words of organizer Hristina Dojčinova, it will also be "a short escape into a world of rich culture, centuries-long history and breathtaking natural beauty."

Don't miss it!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ProZ.com invoicing is a new web-based service that allows translators to create, send and track invoices more easily than ever before.

Member comments:

"If only I had received it earlier! I spent half an hour today downloading another program from the net as I needed urgently to send my first invoice. Thanks a lot!" - Virginia V.

"I was tearing my hair out and tossing small wads of money down the drain trying to find an invoicing program that did only what yours now does and nothing more." - Paul Kozelka

In contrast to similar services, ProZ.com invoicing is free and unlimited for ProZ.com members. Non-members Are also able to create and send a limited number of invoices for free.

(4) Announcing the ProZ.com dictionary and reference board
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The site team is proud to announce the creation of a new ProZ.com dictionary and reference board.

The new dictionary and reference board is a searchable database of dictionaries and other works of reference which may be of use to language professionals. Similar to the Blue Board, members may:

- post records for works they have used
- provide feedback entries on records
- search the database by fields such as title, author, publisher, language pair(s), areas of expertise, etc., to find works which may be of use or of interest for their work.

Thanks go to Nikki Graham and Cindy Chadd, the first two members of the dictionary and reference board team, the team which will help to guide members in using the feature. Nikki and Cindy responded to a call for volunteers made in a suggestion thread on this topic a year ago, and have been working on the project since. Their time spent testing and providing initial feedback is much appreciated.

The dictionary and reference board can be found at http://www.proz.com/references , or by clicking on "Dictionaries & references" under the Community tab. A discussion on it is available here: http://www.proz.com/topic/130592

If you have questions or are interesting in participating more closely with the dictionary and reference board, please contact site staff through the support system at http://www.proz.com/support
