Modal design (full screen button) & responsive text are the only things I notice at first glance that might be missing from other more established frameworks.

Is it just me or their website is laggy?

The screen size simulator at the top is a nice touch. It's also amusing that they use the Orbit slider from Zurb, not bad...just amusing.

I assume Belhor means the UI responsiveness. The :hover transitions are a bit too long for my tastes and it definitely creates a laggy feeling.

Using Safari 6.0.2, clicking on the first input on this page crashes Safari with a speed and efficiency that can only be admired.

I wish Safari could shut down that quickly when I manually quit.

No problem with Chrome.

Parts of the site look a bit blurry on a retina :(

That's really not the best first impression for this sort of site ...

The UI is quite slow for me too. (Chrome ... wait 23?!)

Very nice but for some reason the tooltips (http://groundwork.sidereel.com/tooltips-js) kill Safari
