Really, you don't need a framework to write CSS. It isn't even very helpful if you know what you're doing. For a rapid prototype, you might save yourself five minutes by using a framework, and you'll come out with crappy code that you can't use outside of the prototype.

I can see the value for wireframing, but really, the browser defaults do just as good a job in that case. This is why I've largely stopped development on my own CSS framework. If you watch the video at http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/reset/ , the main engineer states explicitly that you shouldn't be using YUI CSS for production sites.



LinkedIn uses the framework on their site, and they gave a number of great reasons why.
