With Ubiquity, a user can, for example, type a restaurant name in an e-mail, select the name, option-click to bring up the Ubiquity command line, type “map” to generate a Google Map centered on the selected restaurant, and then drag that map to embed it into the e-mail so it can be shared.
A Ubiquity user can also highlight apartment listing URLs on Craigslist and generate a map that shows where the selected listings are located.
