Becoming Ubiquitous

If you are a Firefox power user and consume many Web services like Google Maps, Twitter, or, um, email, you are going to like what you can do with the Ubiquity extension for the Firefox browser.

This video does a good job explaining how powerfu and useful Ubiquity can be in mashing up various Web 2.0 services.



I particularly like being able to drop in Google Maps into my emails or emailing portions of web pages.

Being able to check the weather by simply typing 'weather seattle' is very nice too.

While Ubiquity is still in alpha release, it's pretty handy and there is already a great many third party developers extending it with their own scripts. In future posts I'll show how I use Ubiquity for PHP and Flash development using third party scripts, and introduce a couple Ubiquity scripts of my own.
