with a popular article at http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2013/12/04/how-the-internet-is-killing-the-worlds-languages/ The source article was interesting, although I'd take issue with some of their methodology. The WP gloss takes some liberties; in particular, the source says "The latest (2012/02/28) publicly available version of the [SIL] database distinguishes 7,776 languages" while the WP leaps to the conclusion that "…at least 7,776 languages are in use in the greater offline world."
