Ubiquity - Lowering the threshold for Web mashup
hackMozilla Lab recently released Ubiquity, it aims to lower the threshold for Web mashup. The following clips demonstrates how Ubiquity works in action:
may consider to replicate the OS to WebOS, others try to glue different pieces together to stop reinventing the wheel. Ubiquity takes the second approach, and seems quite promising.As a die-hard command line user, I really love the simplicity of Ubiquity. And hopefully the following features may emerge later:
- Wrap another command add prologue and epilogue, glue several commands together for a new functionality.
- Pipe or we could do this in-place by using Pipe.
- Drag-n-drop from the Ubiquity to the web page, and vice versa.
- Nohup, fg, bg and screen full job controls for a quick response for BIG jobs, goes too far?
Any idea of new commands that make your life easier?
