I’ve taken a break from writing TTB but am now back online as I prepare to leave for Latin America. I’m flying to Costa Rica in less than two weeks, and I’ll spend the next couple of months visiting several countries (including Peru, Argentina, Paraguay, and Chile). You won’t want to miss this, so stay tuned!
I’m looking forward to the trip, and to the chance to practice my Spanish!
After the Latin America trip, I plan to spend about three months in Asia and the Pacific, including Thailand, Philippines, Australia, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. I will of course keep you up-to-date all along the way. It’s going to be an exciting year.
Over the past couple of months here in Dallas, much of my work has been “behind the scenes” in web information architecture and user-experience advocacy. But you can catch some of my recently published photos and stories at Wycliffe USA (Literacy for Life and People are Praying for Me) and Wycliffe Canada (Word Alive Spring ‘08 — see “Fuelled by the Past” and “SALT Shakers”).

OK, tonight’s maintenance is essentially finished. You should not notice any major changes at this point. In fact, if you do see something strange, please let me know. Thanks to Fjord, without whom I would still be blogging in the Dark Ages!

Tonight, The Translation Beat will have to go offline for up to a few hours. We hope to be up and running again late tonight or early tomorrow morning.

So it finally happened. I’ve joined MySpace and Facebook. If you know what that means, then you know what to do. Otherwise, don’t worry about it.
TTB posts will show up in my Facebook “notes,” and headlines will show up in the animated graphic on my MySpace page. Have fun!

Yesterday, I received an email from a man who identified himself as a Pakistani Christian. He was interested in having the Bible in Urdu and in Punjabi. I wrote back to him today, and I thought that some of the information I shared with him might be beneficial to others as well.
So, how can you find the Bible in a particular language?
Oh, and if you’re curious, you can download the Bible in Urdu courtesy of the IBS.
