Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for updating announcements on a packet network site such as a website. An exemplary method includes receiving an announcement through an audio interface and storing the announcement on a website server. In accordance with the exemplary method, merchants without Internet access can now update announcements on their websites quickly and economically by using an audio interface such as a conventional telephone. The updated announcements may be either audio or data. If the announcement received in the exemplary method is an audio announcement, it is converted from a first audio format into a second audio format prior to the step of storing the announcement. Whether the announcements are audio or data, the merchants' customers can then retrieve them by accessing the merchants' websites via the Internet.
