    Firebug Seems way slower and still a little buggy. Anyone else? Apart from that: Firefox itself is way faster, way leaner, and, well way uglier. Oh - and I got an error from their site while trying to download. I know, small and petty, but the irony tickled me.

      Uglier than what? I don't personally see much visual difference from FF2... or am I blind? :confused:

          Yeah... I think it kinda got rushed; the FF3 version (1.2) was the "alpha-super-experimental" version when one of the FF3 betas suddenly broke a key API used by the previous version and forced the new one to be targeted for release. ...That said, it's improved a lot in just the past few weeks. I can actually stand to keep it installed on my normal profile, although i keep all logging disabled except when i'm actively debugging a page.

                Yeah, I find it hard to believe that anything is uglier than earlier versions of FF.

                      My Firebug is also extremely buggy. I don't know why but there's a few features missing. For instance, in FF2 the items were highlighted on the page when you had your pointer over the corresponding item in the HTML code. Mine doesn't do this anymore. Also when I try to edit the HTML source in Firebug, the content area (tag tree list) doesn't get replaced with a textarea. The textarea is just 150x50-ish placed in the upper left corner. I surely hope that the author fixes it for FF3.
