Hi and welcome to the about.com guide to podcasting
featuring tips, news, interviews and anything else from the 'podosphere' at large
to help you create, market and maintain your podcast.
Today I am speaking with Michael Smolens of dotSUB and his amazing new closed caption technology.
[up-tempo Rockabilly music playing]
Hi everybody, this is John C. Havens with the about.com guide to podcasting,
and I am very thrilled and excited to have on the show today a gentleman named Mr. Michael L. Smolens.
Michael is the founder and CEO of a really intriguing company called dotSUB
which you can find at www.dotsub.com

His firm is a really exciting thing where you get to put subtitles onto video
for either the hearing impaired or multilanguage situations, that type of thing.
Michael, thanks for being on the show.
>>Thank you, John.
>>So, Michael, give me the 30 second to minute long sort of elevator pitch
just so we have a good context for people who are new to your technology.
>>dotSUB is a browser-based tool that enables film or video
to be captioned, transcribed, and subtitled from one language into any other languages
on the fly, in real time, at no cost, with no downloads, by anybody sitting at a computer.
It's human being translation; it's not AI, computer-asisted translation.
And the goal is to create a very large wiki type of global community
of committed, passionate people that are interested in sharing media across cultures,
