Ubiquity

Information becomes more ubiquitous. I’m not sure if I’m using the term correctly, because it has been a widely-discussed topic lately. Correct me if I’m wrong, but shortly it means that information is everywhere and different devices or applications have cross-access to this information.

Anyway, Web 2.0 has created many user-generated content. Mozilla’s Ubiquity is a Firefox plug-in that gives the user access to a lot of this content. The interface feels a bit like Quicksilver; users can acces data in human language (English that is). Ubiquity comes up with suggestions of what you’d like to do.

Ultimately it should like this:

It’s still in 0.1 alpha stage or less, but I tried it and I think Ubiquity already is a very useful link between the loose ends. Users will expand the possibilities of Ubiquity by adding more information resources and commands. Try and discuss!

Nice. I looked at the video and it looks like it has some interesting features. I’m going to try it soon.

Love it, nice how you can select something of a page and mail it.

Anyone know how it does get the email addresses?
