Voice User Interfaces - an Interview with Erin Smith

Erin Smith is a Senior Voice User Interface Designer and Usability Specialist with Syntellect (www.syntellect.com).

Incidentally, people in the field use the word "vooey" - this is a pronunciation of VUI (Voice User Interface).

Erin mentioned two books:

"Voice User Interface Design" by Michael Cohen
(www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0321185765
/informdesign).

"The Art and Business of Speech Recognition: Creating the Noble Voice" by Blade Kotelly (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0321154924/informdesign).

Paul English's "get human" website is www.gethuman.com.
