Voice Portal

Voice Portal

Voice portals are the voice equivalent of Web Portals, giving access to information through spoken commands and voice responses. Ideally a voice portal could be an access point for any type of information, services, or transactions found on the Internet. Common uses include movie time listings and stock trading.

In telecommunications circles, Voice portals may be referred to as Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems, but this term also includes DTMF services.

Famous quotes containing the words voice and/or portal:

    ‘Stay—stay with us!—rest—thou art
    weary and worn!’—
    And fain was their war-broken soldier to stay;—
    But sorrow return’d with the dawning of morn,
    And the voice in my dreaming ear melted away.
    Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)

    Some sepulcher, remote, alone,
    Against whose portal she hath thrown,
    In childhood, many an idle stone—
    Some tomb from out whose sounding door
    She ne’er shall force an echo more,
    Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
    It was the dead who groaned within.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
