Kachi-mushi

Saturday, 1. March 2008, 20:14:09

The word Kachi-mushi was used in the days of the Samurai to refer to the dragonfly. Its literal meaning is The bug that wins or The victory insect. Dragonflies never retreat and always fly forward.

The Samurai go forth into battle. Clad in armour, a dragonfly proudly affixed upon their helmets and swords. The noble Kachi-mushi guiding them in the hunt for prey.

But new dev-tools is what I'm guessing for.

Hummm, dragonfly = dev-tools.

The dragonfly is an insect/bug. Perhaps they are opening the bug tracking system.

so if the news is going to be broken to the world at SXSW, how do we get to hear about it? Are you going to blog the same day to inform all us waiting??

fearphage, that would be great, and although it makes great sense(the bug eater), I don't think they would make leaflets for sth like this.

I put my money on dev-tools too.

They say on Opera Watch that Opera Mobile 9.5 is going to be showcased at SXSW. Maybe they're renaming the mobile browser to something cooler.

But my money still is on Opera-Firebug.

What am I blurting out above, dragonfly, the web-bug eater.
