Ubiquity: this could be awesome

That’s pretty damn good. Especially for something at such an early stage.

All you need is a decent bit of speech recognition software and you’ve got the computer from Star Trek. :-)

Totally. There was a discussion about it somewhere (metafilter probably) pointing out the benefits to non-techy people if you teamed it up with speech recognition. Even at the current stage it’s pretty clever.

well, I have had frankly awful day at work arm wrestling with my computer to try and get a program to work, with no success.

In a fit of boredom tonight though I installed ubiquity and banged through the tutorial then experimented a bit - basically giggling and going “ooowww” like I small child whenever I discovered anything new.

Bugger the potential, all I care about it that it cheered me up right now.

I’ve interviewed mozilla about it - I’ll post a link when it’s up.

Here’s that link to the Q&A I promised.
