Just to follow up on what I said about Windows Mobile 8 (on phones). The
OCR capability is built into the phone, and when the image arrives on
live.com, the text is there (for a quick check, copy and paste). So the
text of blue plaques, headstones, memorials, foundation stones, etc can
be quickly added to such images.
Gordo (plenty of free time on my hands)

Hello everyone,
Something that we've spoken about before is creating a list of
suggested jobs for people with varying amounts of time. It's about
offering ways for people to help our open knowledge mission in as
little as a couple of minutes, right the way through to having a
couple of hours or days to spare. With some help, I've added some
early suggestions to the volunteer jobs
<https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Volunteer_jobs> page, so you can see
what I mean. Any and all suggestions welcome please!
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
PS have a good weekend :)
