Translation in Digital Content can be a better career opportunity, says Meraj Imtiyaz Alam

Digital media is a medium in which the author is the editor and he is also the publisher. It is a medium which is completely free from geographical limitations and almost free from politico-social control, where the expression is “forced neither to be bound by rules, nor to be afraid of al-Qaeda.” In this medium there is no problem of time, nor circulation. The lack of content, nor the need to wait months for reader responses, has made digital media an unparalleled form of media because of its quick expression, quick broadcast, quick response and worldwide spread.
