Abstract

In this paper, we extend the concepts of audio-icons to provide auditory cues, for improving navigation in Spoken Web for low-literate population in rural India. The SWAicons are a suite of contextual auditory elements, which act as acoustic clues to a user. The SWAicons are expected to increase the user perception for the content and the structure of VoiceSite.
