If you've been looking for an extremely simple way to get a bit of localization into your site, but didn't know how to start, then this new piece from DevArticles might just be for you.

Simple Localisation with PHP just uses a simple cookie/session system to record which language they have chosen and replace the strings accordingly. It allows you to set a default as well as add any language that you'd like, but, unfortunately, you will have to do all of the translations yourself.

While this is a simple way to get the job done on a smaller site, it's not a very good solution for something (like this site) that is very text heavy. There are some other options for translation like that, but they're not nearly as easy to implement.
