Leverage an idea

Luis von Ahn had a wonderfully productive idea - a way to get the web translated completely freely.  It would cost about $50 million to hire professionals just to translate Wikipedia into Spanish, so how expensive would it be to translate the whole web?

The amazing idea has started the project and gets it done for free.  Watch this TED talk to get the idea.  Luis von Ahn is the inventor of CAPTCHA and Duolingo (see the posts of February 13, 14, 17)).
