Stardock Ubiquity Commands

For those who haven't used it yet, Ubiquity is a firefox extension that takes advantage of several web services to improve productivity in a huge way. Best to watch the video to truely understand it:

I've been using Ubiquity for some time now and decided it was time to dust off my programming skills and do something with it. My original idea was to just write a plugin to search the WinCustomize gallery, but a cross between boredom, enthusiasm, and some suggestions from ZubaZ pushed me to do more with it. So, if you have Ubiquity installed, head to the following sites and subscribe to the commands. There is a list of what they include on each site.

This looks to be very cool. I look forward to the day they can verify the safety of all herd related commands but in the meantime, the stardock commands rock!

Can you create a command that can check our PM? Like, if we type in checkpm or something and it tells the unread count? Like checking email?
By the way, excellent job!
