Commercialising Captcha

Ive previously riffed about one of the guys who invented Captchas - Dr Vohn Ahn.  One of my other favourite geniuses, Seth Godin, gives his take on how to commercialise it

Provide it as a free service, except instead of just random numbers place the highest paid advertiser.  Granted, you can already get it for free, but his take is original none the less.  I just love it how he puts this stuff out there. 

I recently bought Seths book Small is the New Big for a long time friend for his birthday.  Its the perfect ’thought of the day’ for people trying to bust out and make a difference.  Given my friend put me onto Unleashing the Idea Virus, it was the least I could do.  As Molly Meldrum would say, do yourself a favour and buy it.
