Default Rough idle - new problem

Hey, i just noticed today that my idle has become very rough and shaky. The rpms do not remain constant, it drops randomly. Sometimes its rough enough to the point where i think my car my stall out and just die. Even when i give it more gas the shaking does not go away.

The car is a 98 v6 with about 78k miles, any ideas?
