Joe Youngblood asked Google on Twitter if Google would "honor VoiceXML in the near future to help match voice searches with website content." Google's John Mueller responded on Twitter basically saying no.

VoiceXML (VXML) is a digital document standard for specifying interactive media and voice dialogs between humans and computers. It looks like this:
