Conference paper
(Voice) website creation and access using phones
Abstract
Several attempts have been made and many more are underway to make the existing Web content accessible to all. Such systems, by definition, follow the adapter approach where a legacy system is adapted to meet unforeseen and unplanned requirements. Given the approach, it most often results in solutions that are either non-natural or solve part of the problem. Second, while lot of efforts have gone into making content accessible, relatively less efforts have been put into enabling currently incapable people to create and generate their own accessible content. In this challenge paper, we present demonstration of creation of (voice) websites through simple voice interaction system over a phone call. Such an easy interaction enables even non-literate people to be able to generate and make available their own content, in their local language. © 2010 ACM.
