Abstract
A method of accessing information on a distributed database. In a preferred embodiment, a proxy server receives a request for information from a client machine. The proxy server retrieves the information from the distributed database. The proxy server separates the information into an audio component and a visual component, and sends the audio component to an audio browser located on a client machine, and sends the visual component to a visual browser located on the client machine, thereby providing integrated speech and visual browsing.
