Good idea! Yea, I'm not entirely sure how the whole display results thing works... My initial idea was about libraries, but this seems cool too!

This is really cool! I was just thinking again about this yesterday. Especially with create-new-search-command (http://tinyurl.com/akub3a), you can actually look it up in the wikipedia-books section (see link in first page). But there is no central search engine to look in all the librarys on that page...Maybe ubiquity could search every website in e.g. the US and then generate a webpage, but I'm not sure if Ubiquity can render a webpage for us (is it allowed to do that within it's constraints, since right now it is just using other webpages?)

Any ideas?

Aza Raskin's reply to "[Ubiquity] add-to-calendar command problem" was just promoted to the most useful! moloch and 3 other people think it's one of the best replies.

Good news, everyone. We've figured out what the problem was and fixed it. In the process, we also added some new features to the command (like better creation confirmation, as well as refreshing all open calendar pages).

We will be releasing an updated version of Ubiquity soon. But, for now, you can fix the problem by subscribing to my command feed. This will replace the built-in "add-to-calendar" with the fixed version.

Added it to the suggestions page on the wiki, the creation of the command from my side will take a while, still need to learn about it ;) If any one feels like programming it, post here about it!

A comment on the idea "More options in the weather tool" in Mozilla:

Agreed, so if today is Monday, Ubiq 'Weather SF Tuesday' would be the same as 'Weather SF tomorrow'. I've seen a post about 'here' maybe becoming a magic word, so it points to your geo-location over ip. So then you could do 'weather here tomorrow'. Sounds good to me, good combo with the here-being-a-magic-word idea! – moloch, on August 29, 2008 21:35

Sounds like a good idea, I there's something in the tut. on dev. about the preview function, should work with this one!

'Book Source' your ISBN numbers through Ubiquity!

Hello,

I used Ubiquity for a day now, and I love it! I'm looking to contribute obviously, like we all should ;)

Today I searched for a book using the ISBN number.
I can of course look it up on amazon, but I want to find out which library has it. This involves me opening up a new tab, going to wikipedia, and going to book sources (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:...). Maybe a fun feature to add is to be able to Ubiq 'ISBN 1871890306 in San Francisco', and then you would get all the libraries in SF that are in 'Book Sources' that have the certain book.

I'm still trying out the commands tuturial, so I'm working on it, but if I can think of it, somebody can program it ;)
Any replys would be great (tips,hints, encouragements, whatever!)
Greets,

Moloch
