I second the use of Firebug. Been using it for around 2 years, it has so much packed into it considering it’s free, the Javascript debugger is especially useful when writing those code snippets in your pages.
interesting article. I would love to follow you on twitter. By the way, did you guys hear that some Iranian hacker had busted twitter yesterday.
