SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ANSWERING A COMMUNICATION NOTIFICATION
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
modifying a threshold to generate a modified threshold;
determining an importance level of an incoming communication associated with an entity; and
responsive to the importance level indicating that the incoming communication associated with the entity satisfies a requisite importance according to the modified threshold, presenting synthesized speech based on a notification that is associated with the incoming communication.

Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer readable-media for answering a communication notification. The method for answering a communication notification comprises receiving a notification of communication from a user, converting information related to the notification to speech, outputting the information as speech to the user, and receiving from the user an instruction to accept or ignore the incoming communication associated with the notification. In one embodiment, information related to the notification comprises one or more of a telephone number, an area code, a geographic origin of the request, caller id, a voice message, address book information, a text message, an email, a subject line, an importance level, a photograph, a video clip, metadata, an IP address, or a domain name. Another embodiment involves notification assigned an importance level and repeat attempts at notification if it is of high importance.

18. A computer-readable storage device having instructions stored which, when executed by a computing device, result in operations comprising:
-
accessing information stored in conjunction with an address book; determining an importance level of an incoming communication associated with an entity according to the information; and responsive to the importance level indicating that the incoming communication associated with the entity satisfies a requisite importance according to a threshold, presenting synthesized speech based on a notification that is associated with the incoming communication. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
