Get Firefox. Use FireBug. (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1843/)

console.log() goes to a console in the browser, you can see
XMLHttpRequest, you get a full debugger, source and object inspector,
and more.

So, console.log(map) will print "[object Object]", which is clickable to
see all the properties of Object.

It's super-good.
