Ubiquity: Plain English Use of Media

Mozilla Labs is showing of an interesting technology that lets users access common web services, like Google Maps, with a few keystrokes. It’s aim is to simplify use of these services in regular communications like e-mail.

I like the way the interface is conceived. No window swapping when you’re using the browser. I hope they extend it far enough that it can be used in desktop e-mail clients like Outlook as well as web based mail like G-Mail.
