There’s a lot to learn in the translation industry.

Keeping up with technological trends, regulations and[industry standards](https://www.unitedlanguagegroup.com/stories/editorials/implementing-anti-bribery-system-brief-introduction-iso-37001/) can be a daunting task, especially if you’re new to the business. Add to that the fact that translation is a niche industry and doesn’t get much play in the media, it can be hard to know where to start.

Luckily, social media has leveled the playing field. There’s an abundance of translation and[localization news on Twitter](https://twitter.com/UnitedLanguage) for anyone interested in the industry. Everything from machine translation to multilingual content management systems is discussed in the Twittersphere, making it a great outlet for anyone curious about language solutions.

However, we understand that busy professionals don’t always have time to dig through social accounts in search of the best information. That’s why we’ve come up with a list of translation and localization Twitter accounts that we think are worth a follow.
