Firefox 3: Site Identification button

,----[ Quote ]
| Ensuring that users are safe, secure, and protected while they browse the Web 
| is one of the greatest challenges facing browser makers. Browser security 
| involves a delicate balance between protecting the user from the dangers that 
| exist on the Web and overly restricting the user’s freedom to go where she  
| wants and see what she wants while surfing.

Firefox at Mix08

,----[ Quote ]
| So as we're going through the presentation I began to notice a couple of 
| things, the bloke was using both IE and Firefox, but every time he needed to 
| demonstrate some technical point, like showing and us how the page code looks 
| and why it's right or wrong in terms of SEO, he'd switch to Firefox and use 
| tools like Firebug or the Web Developer tool bar that are add-ons to Firefox.    
| 
| But even more interesting than this, is that I know you can get similar tools 
| for IE, they're available through Microsoft Marketplace..... at a price. But 
| obviously even Microsoft partners aren't willing to pay that price, and 
| prefer the Free (and open) tool sets that are available for Firefox.
