Ubiquity

Let me Introduce you to a Mozilla Firefox Addon, Ubiquity. A very handy utility that helps you simplify your tasks during your life in the internet. Command triggered actions can be performed using this tool. This both is fun and very effective.For example if you find some long bad, unknown word in the internet, dont fret, just select the word and ask ubiquity to define it and there you go. Have an address on the webpage and want to know where it exactly is??  Just ask him to Map it for you, he will be more than glad to do so also will it enable you to insert the section of the map into an email and draft it to your friend without ever needing to type another URL in the address bar. U have more adresses??  no worries he is more efficient taht way select everything and say 'map these' and voila there you go.  This make being at many places in one time very possible.
