ABSTRACT:
An embodiment provides search results from a speech initiated search query. The system receives voiced utterances from a user, converts the voiced utterances through use of a speech recognition application, system or method into data strings, identifies from the data strings a search engine identifier representing a search engine chosen by the user to perform a search, identifies from the data strings a query term to be searched for, modifies the query term to be searched for by replacing any spaces in the query term to be searched for with a query term separator compatible with the search engine represented by the search engine identifier thereby creating a modified query term to be searched for, constructs a uniform resource locator that includes the modified query term to be searched for such that the constructed uniform resource locator represents a valid request to the search engine represented by the search engine identifier, opens the constructed uniform resource locator which causes the chosen search engine to make a search for the modified query term, and provides the results of the search system to the user.
