What is it role in the product array with adobe fireworks?

Question

Hi,

I am trying to figure out where adobe fireworks is used most often. Adobe products often have some overlap to their features, so it is not always obvious by the feature set alone...

What the product is really  used for?

Basically, I am hoping someone could complete this idea:

#Photoshop: Crop and edit Image and apply lighting effects to images....

#Dreamweaver: Just design websites

#Fireworks:
So, what is that things that makes someone say "I have to  fireworks, because I want to do and fireworks is great at that"

Thanks in advance
