Stop spam. Read books. ReCaptcha
reCAPTCHA improves the process of digitizing books by sending words that cannot be read by computers to the Web in the form of CAPTCHAs for humans to decipher. More specifically, each word that cannot be read correctly by OCR is placed on an image and used as a CAPTCHA.
Wonderful idea but makes me think about all the words which have been scanned incorrectly but are in OCR software’s dictionary.
