The Internet map Language Translations, Localization, Translation Management - Sajan Blog Imagine that you’re browsing a global company’s website, happily reading about products and services—availing yourself of the content that’s been translated into your language. Just when you’re about to pull the trigger and make a purchase, a question occurs to you. You look for a frequently asked questions (FAQ) page and find nothing in your language. There’s no local number to call, either. Frustrated, you click out of the browser and seek other options. This is just one example of the realities your global audiences may face if you don’t factor in customer service strategies with website localization. Without adequate language support in this critical area, it’s hard to foster global sales, let alone gain repeat business. In fact, Common Sense Advisory’s recent study finds that over 75 percent of the non-English speakers surveyed are more likely to buy a product if sales support is in their language, too.

A beautiful but creepy vision of the "smart glass" future Two things: First, considering the touchscreen maps at my local shopping centres ae almost always down or only half work, and smeared with public finger goop, the maintenance factor would be huge in this kind of world. They'd always need constant repairs, cleaning, and upgrading. And the other thing is, though the touchscreen concept works okay at a small handheld level, if every single button you push has no tactile response, that satisfaction of a physical reaction to pressing a button, it can get quite exhausting for the fingers. I can see the small scale, and informative aspect, like temperature gauges on mirrors and windows, or dashboard info on car windscreens, but this kind of epic interactivity just wouldn't work. These are one of those ideas that are good in theory, but in practice have drawbacks that may not be able to be overcome.
