Ubiquity for Kingdom Geek

If you haven’t heard of Ubiquity for Firefox, you’re miss­ing out. I’m very impressed with what it can do despite how sim­ple it seem­ingly is.

I can’t explain Ubiquity any bet­ter than their page and intro­duc­tory video already do, so I won’t try. I will say, though, that Ubiquity not only makes the Web quite a bit more usable, it’s also fairly sim­ple to extend.

Admittedly, I made use of code seen at Desiring God, but I was able to set up a Ubiquity com­mand — kg-search — which you can sub­scribe to by vis­it­ing my home page with Ubiquity installed. With that com­mand, you can eas­ily search Kingdom Geek from wher­ever you are on the Web.

(Though I wouldn’t be sur­prised if the users who get the most use out of this are Thesis users look­ing for a spe­cific Web tip or trick I’ve posted. :)

In any event, Ubiquity is a neat tool. Check it out!

    You won’t notice any­thing unless you have Ubiquity installed. It’s worth it. :-)
