Currently Ubiquity has more then 1200 commands in its library and according to Mozilla, over 200 000 user.

Now the Mozilla development team has stated a new project. The project is dubbed Taskfox and will “take the time-saving ideas behind Ubiquity, and put them into Firefox”.

So if your a nerd like me with a love for commandbased programs, look forward to the new upcoming taskfox.
