I want the world and I want it now.

apropos iswitchb-buffer.  I customized iswitchb-default-method:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

iswitchb-default-method is a variable defined in `iswitchb.el'.
Its value is always-frame


Documentation:
*How to switch to new buffer when using `iswitchb-buffer'.
Possible values:
`samewindow'	Show new buffer in same window
`otherwindow'	Show new buffer in another window (same frame)
`display'	Display buffer in another window without switching to it
`otherframe'	Show new buffer in another frame
`maybe-frame'	If a buffer is visible in another frame, prompt to ask if you
		you want to see the buffer in the same window of the current
  		frame or in the other frame.
`always-frame'  If a buffer is visible in another frame, raise that
		frame.  Otherwise, visit the buffer in the same window.

You can customize this variable.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
