TEDTalks Open Translation Project Just Launched and Hebrew Up There with the Most Translated To
Posted by maya on 05/13/09 in TEDxTelAviv
TED just launched the new Open Translation Project which brings TEDTalks beyond the English-speaking world by offering subtitles, interactive transcripts and the ability for any talk to be translated by volunteers worldwide.
The most translated TEDTalk (24 languages!) is this exciting talk by Hans Rosling, which with the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, debunks myths about the so-called “developing world”. To watch this with Hebrew translation go here.

Famous, Excellent talk, and I wish they translate his 2007 talk as well, where he’s giving a somewhat more balanced view of things.
Do you have any idea why we can’t embed the subtitled talks yet?

Currently the subs option is not implemented into the embedded player but on the TED.com website. I’m sure this is the next step. I’ll ask.
