Finally I came up with the idea of a new Subtitles representation, named in a fancy style:
Subtitles 2.0
So, what is Subs2.0?
This is a improvement of web-based video, allowing it to include any type of additional information in real-time: text, pictures, links, books etc.
Now I see Subs2.0 features like that:
-Platform-independent, flash-based
-Fully customizable text in "old subs" mode: size, colour, font
-New subs mode - side panel, not attached, but being a part of a video, filled with any type of information, connected with video.
-Socialize. Anyone can make Subs2.0 to any video. e.g., the creator of the video made no subs, or only english ones. Now anyone can create new subs.
-Simple web subs tool, allowing users to make new subs fast and fancy.
What's that for?
Basically this pushes educational videos to the completely new quality level.
Imagine a professor, reading a video-lecture, and you can see all formulas and texts in a side-panel, he mentions a book and in that moment you see a link to the library web-site.
You may fill that panel with live examples of smthn that goes up in the lecture.
