Business before pleasure:
 my page at PublishersMarketplace.com
is the place to go for information about my working life in lexicography, lexical research, and other stuff I do for money. Haven't got any money? 
Come anyway, maybe we can do a deal.

Orin's online resume (or CV if you call it that)

You can buy books that I've written (thereby contributing to my modest income stream and perhaps helping to obviate an undignified descent into geriatric poverty) on Amazon.com! Most of them are on this link.

I'm the book review editor of Dictionaries, the journal of
the Dictionary Society of North America.
If you wish to bring to my attention a title for possible review in the journal
please email me on this link.
You can also join the Dictionary Society (the One True Way to
show your love of dictionaries) by visiting its blog.

LinkedIn Profile

Facebook? Yeah, I waste time there too. I'm happy to connect there with old friends
(high school, college, London, Peace Corps, etc.) and new friends:
