Three Challenges
Volume:
rapidly increasing amount of digital content to be localised into more languages
Access:
print/paper, full screen/keyboard vs. mobile devices, hands-busy, eyes-busy, access on the go
off-line vs. instant/real-time
Personalisation:
coarse-grained “locale” vs. individualised information
