Since he is associated with 4 articles in wikipedia, I figured I should add the stub. The reasons brought up for deleting the article in the first place are no longer the case. If someone could please improve on this article I would highly appreciate it. If you would like to delete the article please discuss it here before doing so, thanks. For reference the 4 articles are: Human-based computation, CAPTCHA, Guessing game, and ESP Game. --JVittes 06:33, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

I honestly wonder if "He is quoted several times on cmubash.org." should be listed here, it doesn't seem encyclopedic, I know the page needs work, and I'll get to it eventually. --JVittes 17:17, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Here is a link to a ~1 hour lecture by von Ahn on Google Video regarding image recognition. It may be relevant, but I have not watched it in its entirety. f I correctly recall, the lecture was delivered at the Google campus on 26 July 2006: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8246463980976635143 Also, isn't it redundant to mention his MacArthur status twice in the article?
