Several days ago Erik Hansson, the founder of a popular Facebook group Things Translators Never Say, sent me a message on Twitter and offered to take part in his new project. The idea was simple but totally awesome: Twitter promotion for one colleague every day with a short tweet using #xl8promote hashtag.

Starting off with #xl8promote series in a minute: presenting #excellent #translators in my network to a wider audience. Follow this hashtag.
