James Evanns asked:
Making available information in a manner that is easy to access and refer is what makes the information valuable. If information that is available cannot be referred to then what is the use of the information.
Imagine going to a library and searching for a particular book amongst the innumerable books that are stacked on the racks. It for this reason that the libraries have catalogues that enable quick and meaningful retrieval. A similar analogy can be drawn to the need for such referencing the information available on the internet. In comparison to a library, the internet is many times the multiples in size. This makes it all the more essential to reference the information. That is the reason why the information on the internet is mainly categorized based on the sub titles, captions etc.
In addition to making this easily available they also reduce the time required to search for articles / snippets on websites like You Tube etc. The availability of many search engines also helps as these search engines can quickly mine the information based on the sub titles, captions and similar means of reference.
This apart, the benefits of subtitles helps the content reach a much wider audience which may not necessarily follow that language. This helps in multiplying the impact of the content. If this were not the case those who cannot follow the language will find it impossible to follow the content and will restrict the scope of the reach.
So next time you have to see a French website, do not be disappointed, there could be sub-titles which help you understand the content.
