Facebook search for Ubiquity
I recently mentioned Ubiquity, Firefox’s new experimental command line for the browser. Anyway, I was tinkering about with the command author tutorial after the upgrade to 0.11 and browsing the source of the included commands when I decided to try my hand at authoring my own command. After messing about with some of the basics and testing things out, I came up with this, my own search command for Facebook. As of it’s current version, it’s actually very simple (making use of the excellent makeSearchCommand() helper function) and works just fine! Subscribe to it here for updates in the future.
















It would be nice to have the friends names, and profile pictures, appear as you type the name you are searching for on facebook. This is in-line with how the “maps” and “flickr” commands (and “check-calendar”).
