Your Web apps should talk not just in English, but in español, Kiswahili, 廣州話, and অসমীয়া too
LibrePlanet 2014

This talk aims to help web developers understand what localization is and why it is important. In this talk I will explain, how MediaWiki/Wikipedia - arguably the biggest and most localized projects on the Internet - handle internationalization, how you can do it for your own apps, via jQuery.i18n (or other frameworks), and I will also talk about TranslateWiki.net, a place for free software projects to get their strings translated.

Speakers: Sucheta Ghoshal
