We present TypeAttack, a Facebook game that improves the efficiency of digitization, which is the process of converting analog information into digital information. In this game, players compete to type out texts from images of scanned documents in the quickest time possible, with the utmost accuracy. These historical documents are thus manually digitized as a bi-product of game play. Harnessing the perceptual abilities of humans as well as their desire to be entertained, TypeAttack enhances
