Hello again Tom,
I agree with you, there are many organizations that need donations.
During this year's Giving Tuesday Donation Drive, there were three of them, listed on the event page. I can't find their names anymore though.

Hello,
does anyone know if the Giving Tuesday sessions will be available for re-watching and if so, how to access them?
I was able to attend the first few sessions (which were great) and had to leave then.
I think Paul mentioned that the sessions would be recorded, but when will they be available?
Thanks and regards,
Ivana.

Post title: All new ProZ.com/TV for International Translation Day - http://www.proz.com/tv/ITD2017

Apologies for posting things a bit late this year. We're completely overhauling the virtual event experience in the hopes of making it much better, easier to participate & available to a wider audience. Moving forward the previous method of conducting virtual events will be migrated to ProZ.com/TV.

ProZ.com/TV is a bit different. There is no registration, no need to be on specific pages at specific times to participate. All you have to do to attend is save the date September 26th-27th starting at 10:00 AM GMT. You can set a calendar reminder at [url removed]

To participate fully in Chat, live Q&A and to see program details watch the International Translation Day event at [url removed]

You can also watch any session from any ProZ.com page, the ProZ.com mobile app, Facebook & Twitter. There is no registration required, no additional downloads or special access - simply be on [url removed] or any of the above locations to watch the International Translation Day event content.

Recordings will be available at [url removed] for 72 hours for registered ProZ.com users, 1 week for ProZ.com basic member subscribers and indefinitely for ProZ.com Plus member subscribers.

We hope this new, more modern approach to distributing great content will be a more enjoyable experience for attendees while also enabling more participants to engage with the content worldwide.

Thanks for supporting ProZ.com virtual events in the past and for your interest in ProZ.com/TV International Translation Day event.

Regards,

Drew

Hi Akhil, we do organize different events...typically at the request of & in conjunction with an organization or individual working in that arena. Suzanne Deliscar, a Lawyer-linguist helps organize the event. If there was interest, and an individual willing to organize a virtual event for Software/IT translation/localization that would be something I would consider. Send me an email at [email removed] - thanks!

Post title: Briefcase

Hi,

As every year you can download a briefcase. It means that you can visit a booth in the exhibit hall and download documentation (as PDF, or html files, etc) about the product presented by the booth holder.

For instance, if you visit a booth, you click on the "Product Information" tab, at the top of the main window (in the right half of the screen), and then you select the file of interest and
1) either click on "open" and you read it immediately,
2) or click on "save", and then a new window will appear. It is the famous"briefcase", in which the document will be stored.
3) You also can download it directly to your computer.

At the end of your visit, I mean when you have saved in your briefcase all the documents of interest from all the booths of interest, you just have to click on the 3rd icon from the left at the bottom of any window related to the exhibit hall. I mean either from the window of any booth or from the "general" window of the Exhibit Hall.

This icon looks like a small suitcase/attaché case. It contains all the documentation you wanted to save in order to read it later.

When clicking on this icon it will open a window called "My briefcase". From this window, you can read or download the documents on your computer.

Hope this will help you.

Catherine

I find the navigation for this week's virtual event somewhat confusing. After clicking in to check out today's sessions, I saw a purple box that said "Visit Exhibit Hall to download your Briefcase" - sounds intriguing, although I don't know exactly what a Briefcase is. So I clicked into the Exhibit Hall expecting to be directed to my "Briefcase," but instead I get the first page of vendors. OK, so I did a search for Briefcase - nothing. Clicked the various tabs - nothing.

What is a Briefcase and how can I download it?

I agree... but only sometimes, MDBs (phrases and sentences) that will never match a future phase or TDBs (words) that will only frustrate are a waste of time... othertimes, properly trimmed, they save my day.
Voice recognition software is a close second. Physically retyping words more than a couple of hundred times in a lifetime is a lifetime of suffering...

Kind regards,
