	Pay by Voice - A new payment system lets consumers pay for goods by talking on the phone. The founder of one of the first online payment systems has launched a new way for people to buy goods over the Internet or via their cell phones. The new service, called Voice Pay, uses biometric voice analysis to authenticate users. The company says its technology is so reliable that it will guarantee all payments. According to founder *Nick Ogden*, who also set up the World Pay scheme in 1994 (a predecessor of PayPal), Voice Pay should make it much easier to buy items online or on the go, while dramatically reducing fraud. Voice authentication is the way to go, Ogden says, because "the world is becoming increasingly more mobile, as hardware becomes increasingly keyboardless."
