There's no cost to play.
WORLD TUBE
If a video looks interesting, but a foreign language creates a problem, then dotsub.com could be your solution.
The founders created a web-based tool that gives anyone the ability to translate posted video content into multiple languages through subtitles over the bottom of the video. Just click the drop down box next to video and select your native tongue.
LIFE REFERENCE
Eol.org stands for Encyclopedia of Life.
The website was recently launched in a scientific effort to write a "book of species" of all 1.8 million known!
Scientists working on the project introduced the first 30,000 pages. They had some trouble getting online, so in this early stage of the launch only a hand full of species are profiled in full detail.
The authors are hoping for some help from the world's scientific community to complete the book.
