`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`The present invention relates to a system for retrieving
`information from a network such as the Internet. A user
`creates a user-defined record in a database that identifies an
`information source, such as a web site, containing informa(cid:173)
`tion of interest to the user. This record identifies the location
`of the information source and also contains a recognition
`grammar based upon a speech command assigned by the
`user. Upon receiving the speech command from the user that
`is described within the recognition grammar, a network
`interface system accesses the information source and
`retrieves the information requested by the user.
