An interesting project from Carnegie Mellon!
“About 60 million CAPTCHAs are solved by humans around the world every day. [...] What if we could make positive use of this human effort? reCAPTCHA does exactly that by channeling the effort spent solving CAPTCHAs online into “reading” books.”

I wonder if Musematic could participate? Best, –Paul
