Author Dennis Meyer reviews common challenges developers encounter when internationalizing content (both text and media) and interfaces, and explores options when it comes to translation, including machine translation, translation memory, and crowdsourcing. Plus, learn how to adapt your quality-assurance strategy for different locales and platforms.

Researching localization targets
