Here's a neat article about Duolingo. I might try it.

But this passage:
CAPTCHA led to reCAPTCHA, which was bought by Google and is a fiendishly clever bit of stealth crowdsourcing. Instead of asking you to interpret just one block of blurry text, reCAPTCHA makes you do two. One is to prove you’re human. The other is a scrap of a scanned page from an old print newspaper article or book. By forcing users to type the text they see, Google has managed to digitize reams of content for its own library.

Are you shitting me? Diabolical and brilliant.
