It Doesn’t Have to be This Way You’re writing an email to invite a friend to meet at a local San Francisco restaurant that neither of you has been to. You’d like to include a map. Today, this involves the disjointed tasks of message composition on a web-mail service, mapping the address on a map site, searching for reviews on the restaurant on a search engine, and ...Shared by _dot_ (118) Aaron (30) Abe Serrano (4) adam (1898) Adam Hoyle (18) Adam Javůrek (27) Adam McDonald (42) ademar (22) Adrius Fortytwo (11) Adrock (6) Alasdair Watson (6) Alberto (41) Alberto Piccini (99) Aleksander (41) Alex Porter (15) Alexander Goldovsky (55) Allan Espinosa (35) Allison Kipta (181) Alp Çoker (10) AlvarezVal (39) Alvin (8) Amihai (179) Amr Eldib (12) Andre Figueiredo (13) Andrea Baresi (6) andreas (6) Andreas (37) Andrew (28) Andrew (44) Andrew Cornett (15) Andrew Walkingshaw (18) Andy (30) Aneel (151) Anthony Bowyer-Lowe (24) Antoine Brunel (7) apinkpony (33) Archimedes Trajano (62) Armando (66) Arnaud Fischer (36) Art (273) ashmex (30) baber (8) Babychen Mathew (1099) Baldgeekinmd (56) Barbara K.

- lishevita said: This is very cool. I'm totally excited about this, and I'd love to see what this will do in the future on mobile platforms. Be sure to watch the video.
- Beemer said: Awesome concept by mozilla...it will definitely change the way we interact with the web...have a read and look at the video.
- Sjoerd Visscher said: Yubnub on steroids!
- Brent said: Just playing with this thing this afternoon. So far, pretty cool.
- Jon Winstanley said: Nice new browser innovation
- Walter DeFoor said: Holy crap this is amazing.
- baber said: Got this itro from my friend Atul, cool stuff about ubiquity and about time.
- Ryan said: very interesting. kind of like executer or launchy for firefox
- Yann Dìnendal said: Wah ! Regardez la vidéo, ça a l'air énorme !
- Juan Diego said: Mencionado en:- http://www.davidgp.com/2008/08/27/ubiquity-para-firefox/- http://alt1040.com/2008/08/ubiquity-para-que-la-web-desconectada-este-mas-conectada/- http://www.enriquedans.com/2008/08/ubiquity-visualizando-tendencias-en-el-uso-de-la-web.htmlEn ninguno de los tres he entendido qué es Ubiquity, en realidad. Se dice que está muy bien y que hay que ver el vídeo.Y como aún no he visto el vídeo... :)Actualización:Ya he visto el vídeo. Parece que sí, que puede ser interesante. ¿Por qué? Para qué te lo voy a contar si puedes ver el vídeo tú mismo, jeje.
- Eddie said: i've wanted something like this for a while now, if only for a command line interface to the web. yubnub is too slow, and is often down. firefox smart keywords are ok but require an extra bounce and extra (server-side) coding if i want to do anything fancy.
- ryan.capote said: This is really cool, watch the video!
- Pradeep said: Awesome!Have been playing with it since yesterday evening. It is most certainly the Quicksilver (http://bit.ly/1XVYsZ) of the web. And they seem to be intent on revolutionizing the way we access the web. (Also, check out Adaptive Path's video for Mozilla Labs' concept web series: http://adaptivepath.com/aurora/)Install (https://people.mozilla.com/~avarma/ubiquity-0.1.xpi) and type "command-list" to get the complete list of built-in commands.Or ubiq "command-editor" and build your own commands. May be something to 'select a text, add a note and post-to-reader'!It's also possible to embed Ubiquity commands in webpages. How will the web react? Think of the possibilities for a frequent user on a massive destination like Amazon or Yahoo!They admit that the whole thing is "messy" and "cluttered" (sample: hyphenated commands) but I can firmly say that they are heading in the right direction.Hmmm...now, about the lost mojo...[http://bit.ly/3xtnj7]
- g9yuayon said: Super cool command line
- WebFlint said: super cool
- Ooble said: ZOMGWOW.This should make anyone switch to Firefox. Watch the video.
- brianwyrick said: hot.
- Malcolm said: Web 3.0 right here
- wyclif said: I'm finding this very useful.
- Giacomo Rizzo said: Molto, molto interessante...
- Betula said: this is too cool! a command launchy in firefox
- Dean said: A command line for the Internet! I love it.
- Ihar Mahaniok said: Wow!Check out the video.This is the first thing in quite a long time that really impresses me.This will increase productivity, definitely.
- Cameron said: This is awesome, its like Quiksilver/Launchy for the web!
- Johan Lopes said: taking web browsing to the next level
- Geoffrey Wiseman said: Looks interesting; would like to see where this goes.
- Erik Arvidsson said: This looks really cool. I wonder how useful it will be in practice?
- Jonny M said: wow, folks like this are amazingly smart...
