Opera Developer Tools

Nice! Opera have released the developer tools that have been in the works for a while now, and they're great! There's the DOM Console (DOM is Document Object Model - Basically how the page is made up using HTML), the DOM Snapshot which is like a source viewer, and the CSS Editor which you can use to mess with the layout from within a loaded page.

I was using Firefox before to do things like live CSS editing and checking out the DOM, but now I can just use Opera! Opera is my default browser, and I don't really like using Firefox, so being able to do all this from the browser that I love is excellent. The only thing that I'll have to use Firefox for now is debugging javascript and checking out AJAX calls (Web 2.0 stuff) if I ever have to do that again.
