Let's say you're a video publisher who wants all the world to have access to your content... But translating videos into multiple languages is time-consuming and expensive -- that is, unless you've got a team of volunteers to do it for you. One of the most efficient ways to tackle the problem is by crowdsourcing subtitles, which is why translation startup Amara has raised $1 million from Mozilla and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Amara, previously known as Universal Subtitles, was created as an open-source platform to allow anyone to crowdsource transcriptions and translations of video content. Its technology has been used by volunteers to translate and create subtitles for more than 170,000 videos, including President Barack Obama?s message to Sudan and the KONY 2012 video, which was available in more than 35 languages in four days.boehner john boehner demi moore hospitalized james farentino somali pirates navy seals navy seal team 6
