Helping to digitize the world's books

My son sent me this TEDtalk today.  I had no idea before watching this that authenticating yourself as a human by using the reCAPTCHA words was helping to digitize the world's books.  The video goes on to explain about Duolingo which helps people to learn a new language for free while they are translating the web.
