Does anyone else see the "Example Blockquotes" section all f*ed up or is it just me. (FF 9, Ubuntu)

I'd love for someone smarter than me to compare Zurb Foundation and this. It seems like Twitter has a few except things (pill-button callouts, etc), but Foundation seems VERY responsive-focused whereas Twitter Bootstrap seems to have added responsiveness in.

I always thought Foundation's grid system was way better. It's responsive and infinitely nestable (and I like the naming scheme better). But Bootstrap 2.0 might change all that.

The link just redirects to the 1.4.0 version of bootstrap.

First thing that pops up to me it's how beautiful and well designed the TB is when compared to Zurb. In terms of implementation I've only used TB, and it was simple, not very intrusive.

Conversely, people could attest the same thing for Zurb. I have used both and I like Foundation a lot better. Haven't tried tb 2.0 yet which apparently has the responsive grid which is the main feature of foundation

I've used both. I found Zurb to be lacking in components related to Bootstrap. Bootstrap is definitely more featured.

I'm sure we know by now that more features doesn't better. Depends on the use case

I put up a call-to-action site for sopa the other day. Due to the timely nature of the site, we had to get it up fast. Ended up using bootstrap for the first time. Was highly impressed - we were able to get a decent looking site up in around an hour. Looking forward to 2.0.

It bugs the hell out of me that they apply styling to vanilla tables. I wish they'd namespace it with a class because it messes up things like datepickers on JQuery-UI.
