With captions, video uploaders can add a translation into a foreign language, provide clarification for garbled dialog or make the video more accessible to the hard of hearing.

Once added, the captions can be accessed by clicking on the arrow in the lower right hand corner of the video. Like video annotations, captions don’t seem to work with embeds. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tamaleaver.net%2F2008%2F08%2F31%2Flinks-for-august-31st-2008%2F'; addthis_title = 'Links+for+August+31st+2008'; addthis_pub = 'tamaleaver'; Tags:acamida, america, annotation, celebrity, facebook, fairfax, highered, journalism, mediawork, news, newspapers, olympics, openaccess, panopticon, privacy, research, sport, subtitles, surveillance, wiki, wikipedia [...]</p> [...] YouTube Adds Captions [NewTeeVee] – YouTube has launched a captions feature to its videos.
