Euręka Web Directory
====================

url: http://www.foreignword.com/Eureka/default.asp

lang: all languages

kwd: Web directory for translators, free, built by members

cmt: Euręka is the only global, community-built Web directory for
translators in existence today.
• It can be used as a personal link organizer.
• Looking for a glossary in a specific field? Make a first stop at Euręka,
and see what others have found.
• Contribute to Euręka instead of sharing favorites in ZIP files or large
URL collections: searching in Euręka is much more efficient for you and your
collegues.
• Use your link page to recommend "most useful sites". Then, link to Euręka
and announce yourself as a contributing member.
• Post to mailing lists for requesting additional URLs and suggesting
top-quality sites and most useful resources (relevant to a large number of
subscribers).
• In order to create a full-fledged, full-text search engine for
translators, one would need a specialized ODP like the Euręka database.
Unfortunately, current participation is insufficient to make long-term
projects. The search technology exists, and if Euręka became popular
worldwide. the money would no longer be an issue. I am not affiliated with
Foreignword, but I hope that you will become, like me, a Euręka enthusiast.
