Mozilla is Reinventing the Web - Again

Get the Information that you Need When and Where You Need It

Mozilla Labs Ubiquity Logo I read a great video on Mashable on a new project from Mozilla Labs that will pull the web together in new ways that will make life on the web more convenient than ever. The project is called Ubiquity and it looks like a huge leap forward in creating on-the-fly mashups while you’re browsing the web. This Firefox extension will allow you to pull together data from different source on the web and combine into new uses in another place.

There are a lot of other services that do this already (Yahoo Pipes, Popfly, Dapper, and Google Code to name a few. ) None of them do it in such an immediate, practical way like Ubiquity will.

Take a look at this video and see how powerful and elegant Ubiquity can be.

I’ve just Installed the prototype and looked at the tutorial to give it a try for myself. Hopefully I’ll have an update that supports my optimistic outlook.
