From interrupting your followers with Kanye, to voicing your displeasure with antiquated web browsers, to protesting DDoS attacks, Twibbons have become ingrained in the Twitter community as a way for users to show their support for a cause with their avatars. Now, the project is celebrating a cool milestone: one million users.

Beyond the quirky Twibbon campaigns we’ve highlighted at Mashable, the site has also been used for plenty of good — we’re told that more than 90,000 people wore pink breast cancer Twibbons on their avatars during Breast Cancer Awareness Month and currently more than 24,000 are showing their support for Haiti. Overall, nearly 30,000 causes can now be supported.

Much like TwitPic, which we recently reported is making several million dollars annually, Twibbon’s one of those simple ideas that’s become a staple of the Twitter ecosystem. Looking to leverage that success, the company is also working on developing a business — brands can now create their own campaigns using the service.

Nice work Firebug team for announcing Firebug 1.5, a great release that fixes many bugs and adds great features:

  • Mike Radcliffe’s Inspector. A key feature, now solid as a rock,
  • Jan ‘Honza’ Odvarko’s expanded and refined Net panel, with accurate timings,
  • Steve Roussey’s reworking of HTML editing and entity support,
  • Kevin Decker’s CSS and Style side panel improvements,
  • Support for dynamic, graphical breakpoints through out Firebug.
  • Tested support for the soon-to-be-released Firefox 3.6

This is a big deal. The release is out *before* Firefox 3.6. No more “oh man we have a new Firefox but it doesn’t work with Firebug argh”. Awesome.
