If you ask anyone what is the advantage of using Firefox, more than 90% will say it is because of the huge collection of add-ons it has got. After using Firefox for so long I just found out the most interesting extension for Firefox. Ubiquity is a set of natural language commands which enable quick access to various web services and activities such as search, e-mail, translation and social networking.

Once install (installation is as simple as a normal Firefox add-on) it is very easy to use.
