Globalize your On Demand Business

Just-in-Time localization makes application data easier to transfer, manage and manipulate, and it lets applications more accurately reflect user preferences.
Executive summary: JIT localization

"In a world of on demand software components, with arbitrary connections between those components, it is important to get a sense of where localization should be done, and how to transmit enough information so that it can be done at that appropriate place. Users need to get messages localized to their languages, messages that not only contain a translation of text, but also variables such as date, time, number formats, and currencies formatted according to the user's conventions."
