Opera Promises Voice-Operated Web Browser

unassimilatible writes "Opera's latest browser talks and listens, according to AP. The new browser incorporates IBM's ViaVoice technology, enabling the computer to ask what the user wants and "listen" to the request. "Hi. I am your browser. What can I do for you?" asked a laptop with the demonstration versions of the browser. The message can be personalized, such as greeting users by name. The computer learns to recognize users' voices, accents and inflections by having them read a list of words into a microphone. Opera plans to first launch an English version of the voice browser for computers running the Windows operating system. Versions for other systems, including handhelds, will follow. Opera's press release has more details, including Opera's hopes that people will adopt this technology for presentations - and to replace PowerPoint."

What's wrong with gay porn?

[Anonymous Coward]

you like gay porn...faggot.

What's wrong with that?

I'm not gay, I like women, but watching an aggressive, well-endowed white guy digging tunnels in the ass of a submissive asian guy until they both cum just turns me on.

Oh yeah. When my wife falls asleep, I'm gonna watch that video again...
