Abstract

A mobile device for accessing information over a communication network using a keyword identifier. The mobile device comprises: i) transceiver circuitry configured to transmit information to, and receive information, from the communication network; ii) voice recognition circuitry configured to receive from a microphone of the mobile device a voice input spoken by a user of the mobile device and convert the voice input to a text string; and ii) a controller configured to determine if the text string includes a valid keyword identifier. In response to a determination that the text string includes a valid keyword identifier, the controller generates a query from the valid keyword identifier and transmits the query to a remote server. In response to a determination that the text string does not include a valid keyword identifier, the controller identifies in the text string at least one candidate keyword and at least one candidate domain name. The controller transmits the at least one candidate keyword and at least one candidate domain name to a keyword server associated with a keyword management database.
