Abstract
A system and method for retrieving distributed content responsive to voice data are disclosed. Voice data is transmitted from a source client device to media server which applies a mixing table to route the voice data to one or more destinations described by the mixing table. The media server also analyzes the received voice data for one or more events. Responsive to detecting an event, the media server communicates with an application server, which modifies the mixing table so that subsequent data is also routed to a media generator which analyzes voice data received after detection of the event for a command. The media generator communicates with the application server to retrieve data from a user data source, such as a website, associated with a detected command. The media generator produces an audio representation of the retrieved data which is communicated to the source client device via the media server.
