I wrote a book about the Meteor JavaScript framework, which is available for free, but I also sell a video training series that's based on the book: http://meteortips.com

For the sake of shameless self-promotion, I'd also like to suggest my book for anyone who feels Discover Meteor moves a bit too fast: http://meteortips.com/book/ (It's free.) :)

My girlfriend is a native Japanese speaker (and fluent in English), and I told her that it wouldn't be tricky to find some sort of online customer support gig, but then it's turned…

A sequel to my book about the Meteor JavaScript framework. This was the first: http://meteortips.com But since that one just hit its 2nd edition, I'm keen to talk about topics I'm …

Will get to more advanced stuff one of these days. Next step is to write about mobile development with Meteor. :)

Don't overestimate automated translation. My girlfriend is a native Japanese speaker (and professional translator) and she laughs when she sees the results of Google Translate. Esp…

Also, as a shameless plug, beginning web developers are quite fond of my book about Meteor: http://meteortips.com/book It'll be a couple of days before a (completely) revised versi…

No problemo. Been a lot of fun. :)

There's a lot I plan to revise about it over the coming months, but the scope feels about right. :)

In that regards, it's mostly a matter of simplicity. It's easier for us to work with the devices we have (and love) and to market based on a specific target.

My partner already does "specialise" in translation. She does freelancing for a living. I simply had the theory that it'd be more effective to niche down, and I chose to target iOS…

Sorry for not being clearer. I edited the original post, so use that email. :)

Because we feel like we can offer better service by specialising, since we can test the apps ourselves, etc. We want to give every app a considerable amount of attention so the fin…

Note: We were having trouble with the original email in this post so I've switched it over to my personal email. If anyone's sent a message already, please resend. Thanks. :)

Here's the offer: My partner — a native Japanese speaker and actively working translator — and I want to translate a handful of iOS applications from English into Japanese for free…
