Rarely do bugs get the right respect or love from most humans. We don't like them anywhere near our food, bed, skin and not the least, inside our computers. But I find it amazing how every now and then, somewhere, someone would come up with a brilliant idea and name it after something rather odd. For example,
Yahoo, which was probably named after a violent beast-like creature from a 1726 novel.
Beatles, the most successful musical artists in the history of mankind, and the beetle car, probably the coolest automobile of the flower-power era, both named after an insect.
When I first used Firebug, I told myself here's another invention with a peculiar name that will be loved by many - web developers at least ;)
I'm a relatively new user of Firebug (a couple of weeks). I got the bug inside my computer(lol) just a couple of weeks ago and in my short hot experience with the pyromaniac(lol), design time became shorter and more accurate.
I will be blogging more about this nifty tool soon. For now, to my fellow web craftsmen, here's an insect you wouldn't want to squash.
