Not sure if this is new but I recently installed a skill via voice on Christmas. I'm not usually one to "test" Alexa but I said "Alexa, when is the next Bainbridge Island ferry?" just to see if she could query it.

She said, basically, "The Washington Ferry skill can probably help you answer that. Should I install it?" I replied "Yes" and she took a moment to load the skill and then also automatically answer my original question.

Wait really? That's... actually really cool. I've dismissed this all as a fad and a voice interface to a search engine but that's actually neat.
