Keskidi is a wiki service build to add and edit video subtitles in a collaborative manner

What Company Is Offering:
Keskidi is a wiki service build to add and edit video subtitles in a collaborative manner. It was build to fit a gap, that there are plenty of videos on the Internet, plenty of good documentaries, shows, food recipes, high-level free courses, but many of them don't benefit to the rest of the world because of language barriers.

How It Works:

They strive to bring a simple tool that, let's say, your grandma would be able to quickly handle. Once you get your account, which is free to create, all you need to do is to import a video located a video sharing platform like YouTube or MySpace, and start captioning it. Users of the site will spot your initiative and will help you get it fully captioned, while others will translate the texts into their own language. Whenever you want, you could embed the video into a web page by copy-pasting a short code given on each single video page. This way, you could provide a sort of DVD-ish video player fulled of different languages to your friends or your blog readers.
