Спасибо за статью. Печально, что русский язык не входит в десятку наиболее используемых языков в Internet.

The article is old, if you open the link they refer to, you will see that the Russian is there:

When measured how?

Data in a table at the bottom of the article is extremely stale - 2007! Russia now boasts the biggest Internet audience of all European countries. Add to that a formidable number of Russian speakers in other countries, and Russian surely outgrosses Korean and Italian on the Internet.

(I am not sure that number of speakers online is the one and only measurement of "language usage on the Internet")

You seem to be talking about a "potential" audience. Statistics for actual usage is quite different.

Nope. It's actual monthly audience.

Got any (recent) data?

Sorry to ruin a joke, but this sentence is not valid.

Google Translate again: "Just start a cold war again: D"

(Google Translate doesn't quite 'get' smilies, apparently.)

Let's see what Google Translate makes of this:

"Thank you for the article. It is sad that the Russian language is not included in the top ten most used language on the Internet."
