Re: 7 lessons from my first responsive web site

Aaron,

Yes, I've already read about Bootstrap's "grid" options and played with
them on one project. But I'd like to hear about some practical examples of
people using them, to better understand what might be entailed. My
understanding, which is admittedly limited, is that developers may select
from "extra small", "small", and "large" CSS classes for HTML elements. CSS
Class names indicate whether they are targeted for use with various screen
sizes. But what is "responsive" about that? What about GUI elements that
automatically adapt to screen sizes?

Kelly's site demonstrated the use of "media queries" which automatically
toggle the visibility of a "menu bar" for larger screens or an optional
"drop-down" menu for smaller screens. How would Bootstrap be an improvement?
