Hey Translators!

We realized that some people might prefer to get announcements sent to microblogging services instead of (or in addition to) subscribing to a mailing list. Because of this, the Translation committee now has an Identi.ca[1] and a Twitter[2] account. You can subscribe to one or both if you'd like (they'll both have the same updates).

The accounts will most likely post announcements of new requests with links to the mailing lists post for more information. We'll also try to maintain a "twitter list" of translators (@wikitrans/translators[3]) similar to our current committee list (@wikitrans/committee[4]).

We look forward to seeing you on those sites! :-)
