[Chugalug] intern

[Ed King]

Based on the translation accuracy I've seen from Google's speech-to-text 
results, I suspect that there will be a fair amount of proofreading that will 
need to be done, and I would be glad to have some help with that part of the 
project.  Let me get the files and start chewing on them...    I'll keep 
everyone updated with my progress and share my scripts/notes, etc

While I don’t have the technical expertise, if proofreading becomes necessary, I 
could volunteer some time …
 
Thanks,

I wish there was an open source reCAPTCHA. This would be a great way for 
libraries to digitize their archives easily.

Hi all,
Over at the library in our local history department we've got some pretty neat 
oral histories.
The transcripts are all typed out on paper and the content is all burned to CDs.
I'd love to find an intern, perhaps a student, who would be interested in OCRing 
all of those transcripts and making everything accessible on the web.
If you have experience with this kind of thing and want to take on a project, 
please drop me a note.
Thanks
Nate
