@esoteric_programmer @alcinnz I tried using only keyboard/voice interface for #GAAD a couple of years ago. My notes on it were (a) surprisingly possible (b) second-class experience.
I think to make this a thing (which it absolutely should be) you would need to have a focus on timing and duration and intuitivity of voice control equal to the amount of time we spend on thinking about visual web design and CSS and screen usability.
