I really like the idea of CSS frameworks and pre-defined cross-browser css libraries. I currently use Bluetrip for most of my stuff. The idea of having something <1kb is also super rad. But, unless I am missing something, this is basically a CSS sheet with 6 pre-defined widths for columns. As such, it doesn't really help me out all that much.

  @brusgfire: If you mix these 6 pre-defined widths for columns you will have many many more combinations.

    You are right. It took me a little bit to actually understand the process. This is actually very smart! Thanks for this, I'll look at incorporating this into my ongoing projects and see how it works out.

    In Slavic languages yes, but in Spanish it has indeed negative connotations: http://www.google.com/dictionary?langpair=es|en&q=malo http://www.google.com/dictionary?langpair=es|en&q=malo

I've found CSS frameworks to be great if you have a really deep site with a lot of people working on it. YUI is currently my favorite. Otherwise, most people would probably be better off building their own framework. This tends to work great for me: @reset @typography @forms @layout @IE-fixes

Its cool that css frameworks are starting to use fluid widths instead of fixed px found in most original grid layouts.

wow this is seriously great. I couldn't believe how simple it was for how versatile it is in relation to how small the codebase is! (~8 lines)
