Yes, I agree.
"Ubiquitous" is a clumsy word for "everywhere" or "seems everywhere". However, the damn word, as they say, has legs. That gol~awful guttural word has been a J-jive word for journalists for a several years now. They think it cool and smart.
"Omnipresent" has come to mean a "presence everywhere", and the word usually refers to God or some arcane invention of philosophy, and as such, it should be left that way.
