I like Viadeo but Linkedin as my primary networking platform http://de.linkedin.com/in/englishprofi . I'm be happy to connect with people in the language services industry here and there.
Send me an invitation to connect.
My goals are:
1. To help freelancers and agencies reach new customers
2. To help agencies find quality freelancers
I believe:
1. Agencies should treat freelancers fairly
2. Freelancers should treat each other fairly.
3. Pricing and competing should be conducted in a way that supports and benefits everyone in the industry.
