>Very interesting.
>But I'd love to see some way to get such videos subtitled.
>
>How the internet make the world a better place? Well, by at least try where
>possible to make such clips accessible for people who cannot understand the
>voice in such clips.
>That means people who are Deaf, deaf and Hard of Hearing.
>But when such video clips are subtitled, everybody benefits from this. You
>can watch such video clips in your office without disturbing your
>co-workers. Or when English is not your first language, the subtitles may
>help.
>Or if you are in a noisy place like an internet café, or in a library where
>noise is not appreciated. Subtitles will also help.
>
>Hmmm we should create a video clip explaining why subtitles are a good idea
>for video clips that show how the internet makes the world a better place.
>
>I wish I had access to people who can subtitle video clips.
>
>What do you all think about this?
