A decade or two ago, it was cool to use terms like "global village", "information superhighway" and so forth. Now they're clichés. A few years ago, if a small scale enterprise had clients from across the globe, it was considered to be a step ahead of others. Today it's commonplace to have clients and branch offices scattered across the globe. As a developer or programmer, what does this mean for you? It means that you need to be aware of concepts like globalization and localization as well as how to implement them. It means that you need to be prepared to deliver globally-ready applications, no matter what technology you use. The fact that an enterprise or line-of-business application is globally-ready is not a luxury anymore, it's an essential requirement.
