you know those strange melting letters and numbers you have to interpret and type in when you're registering for something or other online? researchers at CMU have found a way to have those CAPTCHA moments contribute to digitizing books. unrecognized sections of scanned text are used instead, and when people interpret the jumble, it gets sent to a database. don't worry--it compares multiple people's intrepretations before making any final "decisions."
