1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a first computer system, audio data associated with a verbal request from a user, the user associated with a computing device;
converting, by the first computer system, the received audio data into a symbolic representation of content of the verbal request;
generating, by the first computer system, an application identifier for a particular application to be launched on the computing device, the particular application indicated by the content of the verbal request; and
transmitting the symbolic representation and the application identifier to the computing device, the symbolic representation and the application identifier when received by the computing device causing the computing device to;
launch the particular application installed on the computing device;
transmit a query to a second computer system that corresponds to the particular application, the query based on the symbolic representation of the verbal request;
receive a response to the query from the second computer system; and
present the response to the query through an interface of the computing device.

Abstract
A method for receiving processed information at a remote device is described. The method includes transmitting from the remote device a verbal request to a first information provider and receiving a digital message from the first information provider in response to the transmitted verbal request. The digital message includes a symbolic representation indicator associated with a symbolic representation of the verbal request and data used to control an application. The method also includes transmitting, using the application, the symbolic representation indicator to a second information provider for generating results to be displayed on the remote device.
