That does not sound stupid, Raefindel. Yes, the ring spoke at times. Although, I believe that the Ringwraiths could smell the ring as well as sense it. For example, the part when the hobbits hid under the tree and the Nazgûl sniffed them.. oh wait, he was just sniffing for the hobbit.. with the ring. Perhaps the ring has a distinct scent, but I will stop confusing myself.
The Ringwraiths seemed to have a sixth sense, where they can "feel" the ring, especially if it were put on, since when someone is wearing the ring, the ring is in their world and they can see it. So, I conclude with a combination of scent, a telepathic bond with the ring, and the ring calling out to him, is how they track it. (Wow, this is possibly my longest post...)
