Not the usual OTW fare, perhaps, but this is a side-project by my friend Donny and I thought I’d give it a plug, since it does indeed do one thing well.

ingrid - A fluid CSS layout framework →
Hello, I’m Ingrid!
Ingrid is a fluid CSS layout system, whose main goal is to reduce the use of classes on individual units.
Ingrid is a bit less obtrusive and bit more fun to reflow for responsive layouts.
Ingrid is heavily inspired by oocss grids http://oocss.org.
Ingrid is also meant to be an extendable system, easy to customize to your own needs.
Ingrid loves cats :o)
