    Firefox 10, due out January 31st (the same day Firefox 11 becomes an official Beta release), finally rounds out the browser’s growing collection of developer tools with Page and Style Inspectors.

    In some ways, these tools are similar to Firebug, but they’re also uniquely Mozilla-ey.

    Rather than try to reproduce Firebug or the WebKit developer tools, Mozilla has included only the most essential features, focusing instead on making the experience elegant.

 Since there are so many different add-ons available to download, it can be a little overwhelming to pick out which ones you should be using.
