After the invention of the web in 1990, internet users with a native language other than English reached 5% in 1994, 20% in 1998, 50% in 2000, and 75% in 2015. Many people helped promote their own language and culture and other languages and cultures — sometimes on their free time and often using English as a lingua franca — for the web to become truly multilingual. Based on many interviews with language professionals and information professionals around the world, this short book is a tribute to their hard work and dedication.
