reCAPTCHA is a free CAPTCHA service that helps to digitize books, newspapers and old time radio shows.
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. This is possible because most OCR programs alert you when a word cannot be read correctly.
