Firebug has helped me out so many times. It’s probably the best tool I’ve used to assist me with development. If you don’t know what it is, here’s a video that illustrates Firebug and what it can do (warning: it’s close to an hour in length—I skipped through it).
Firebug is awesome

(off-topic) Looks like your main page isn’t working.. which is better than my site, which is completely broken now for some unknown reason.

Yeah, I actually tried to hit your site earlier today, looking for one of your posts (had to do with Rails, but I can’t remember specifically). I wonder if other hosting companies go through these kinds of issues.
I know this doesn’t make sense, but sometimes, when my site is just hanging, I go into the panel and just click the “save my fully hosted settings now” button (or whatever it says). It’s like it wakes up the server.
Also, if you don’t have your version of Rails frozen, I once had a problem with the RAILS_GEM_VERSION variable in
environment.rb, which was set to an outdated version (since they just upgraded to 1.2.1, I believe). But I got the idea to freeze Rails from you, so I’m sure you still do it. Hopefully it loads up by tomorrow, I might remember what I was looking for!
