Introduction
I had the pleasure of attending the second day of jQueryTO this past weekend and had a great time.

Twitter Bootstrap
Recently, I've been playing around with Twitter Bootstrap and it's pretty amazing.

A site I've been working on requires the display to be right-to-left instead of left-to-right. Who knew there were people who read things backwards?
