Phone for Voice Search?
January 9th, 2007 by pamela
Imagine picking up your mobile phone, typing in a number and speaking your search term before addresses, links to web sites, and phone numbers for the closest matches in your area appear on your screen.
A new patent from Microsoft describes just that, a voice search technology which would allow users to search by voice before receiving results via text, IM or in a web browser on a handheld device.

I could imagine how disabled groups and conmmunities related to poor sight would welcome this voice search technology.
This technology could overcome the overall poor response from corporates that need to address Disabilty Discrimination issues.
It is an opportunity to bring search to an even wider audience.
