I know I'd find this very useful - what do you guys think?
I definitively prefer reading over watching video (and I've
got the feeling I'm
not alone). Wouldn't spend a single buck for this though.
To publish the slides along with a text version of the talk
would be an
alternative.
You're not alone. I can read a transcript far, far faster than
watching a video.
The point is: real time captioning is not faster than listening
regardless of your reading speed. It's useful for people you
cannot hear properly, but I'd say our efforts are better spend
with proper text version of talks published later.
