Labs/Ubiquity/Ubiquity Command Suggestions

Back to Labs/Ubiquity.

• Commands for all of the menu items (so that I never have to reach for the mouse to menu again). Sandro mentioned this recently.
• Timezone convertor (something like "get time in australia" and perhaps, "convert 8pm australian time to my time" where my timezone could automatically be obtained from CmdUtils.getLocation())
• Youtube Search
• Flickr search (a coverflow-like preview would be awesome)
• Flickr integration (ability to inject pictures/slideshows and post found images to Flickr)
• Twitter search
• Twitter integration (see Blair's Twitter command)
• More advanced twitter integration (a command to view last x messages from a specific friend and another to view your recent friends timeline)
• Currency conversion
• Unit conversion
• Stock quotes
• BugMeNot lookup for current page
• Route on Google Maps
• Link finder (like the "link-to-wikipedia" command but then, instead of inserting a link to wikipedia, allow the user to find the link from history/bookmarks. This would save a lot of excess work because at the moment, to insert a link, you have to open up a new tab, find the page you want to link to, copy the address and then, go back to add the link)
• Program launcher (When in Chrome, JS can launch other applications)
• Go command (for switching between tabs by name) (achieved by the "tab" command builtin to Ubiquity)
• Search command (allows you to search for text in any open tab, and then navigate you there)
• Blog integration (select a chunk of text or an image and then blog about it in your favorite blog software)
• Flock stuff (be inspired by whatever seems to be actually useful in Flock)
• BlueOrganizer (be inspired by this addon and it's somewhat semantic knowledge)
• Fly command (possibly using the Kayak API) to make booking flights easier
• Take inspiration from Clipmarks
• Ability to take snapshots of the current window
• Ability to annotate web pages and then share those annotations
• Digg (see Sandro's diggthis command)
• Reddit/Mixx
• Del.icio.us
• Queries for places datastores, rendering in plain html blue links (Beltzer showed me a little js console script that is a fine starting point).
  • tag:(hci gestuers)
  • site:google date:yesterday show:clicks
  • starred intitle:Concept
• Turn referencing friend feed comments and tweets on a page (defaulted to the current page) into page annotations via command "show conversations"
• Firebug integration, inspect DOM-Reference, show firebug net panel
• Integration with Jaiku, Plurk, and other microblogging services (not only with Twitter)
