Make Money Through Advertisements that Replace CAPTCHA

If there is anything utterly annoying about Web sites these days, it is CAPTCHA technology. Distorted, hard-to-read text and numbers might cut down on spam, but frustrate Web site visitors and may result in more lost sales than we care to admit.

A new company called Solve Media has an innovative idea. Instead of distorted text, visitors are asked to input part of the text in an advertisement. This still proves the user as human, but is less frustrating for the user, and earns the site owner a profit at the same time.
