 Let's say I've found an interesting fact on a web page and I want to send it to Chris.  I can select part of the page, including links, pictures, and anything else, and then issue "email this to chris".  Ubiquity understands "this" to refer to my selection.  (I could also have said "email it to chris" or "email selection to chris" -- all of these are equivalent.)  The selected part of the page shows up in my preview:
-[[Image:Command-list.png]]
+[[Image:Email-picture-selection.png]]
-I actually know several people named Chris, so there will be several lines in the suggestion list -- one for the email address of each Chris in my address book.  I can arrow-key down to the one I want and then hit the Enter key.
+(Actual email addresses blurred out to protect the innocent.) Since I know several people named Chris, there are several lines in the suggestion list -- one each Chris in my GMail contacts list.  I can arrow-key down to the Chris I want and then hit the Enter key.
 I'm taken to the GMail "compose new email" page.  The chunk of the page that I selected is reproduced in the body of my email, the "to" field is filled with the email address I selected, and the "subect" field contains the title of the web page I was on.  I can now edit this email to add anything else I want to say, before clicking "Send".
