Il World Wide Web, l’ invenzione che più ha rivoluzionato la nostra vita negli ultimi anni, nasce dall’ intuizione di Tim Berners-Lee, che peraltro ha sempre affermato che il Web è il frutto di un lavoro collettivo, e da un’ incredibile serie di sviluppi di ricerca e tecnologici. I principi ispiratori della proposta iniziale sono ancora vivi e attuali, e il Semantic Web è la realizzazione di un sogno che appariva impossibile.
Nella nascita e successiva travolgente diffusione del Web hanno giocato un ruolo fondamentale un’ impostazione tecnica e umana che ha privilegiato e valorizzato il lavoro collettivo e il rispetto reciproco, e una forte attenzione ai valori umani.

If you are a designer, developer or author working on a website that may be translated or adapted for users in other countries or languages, you need to ensure that you don't build in substantial barriers to localization. If you think that the translation vendor or localization team can take care of things for you when the time comes, you really need to hear this talk. We will use examples to examine some of the things that must be designed into the site, rather than treated as an afterthought, if it is to be successfully deployed in more than one language or country.
