I am working on a presentation for a couple of user groups and a bigger 
conference in May and I could use your opinions. The description of 
boostrap on the website is:  

"Simple and flexible HTML, CSS, and Javascript for popular user interface 
components and interactions" 

If someone came up to you and asked you what boostrap is I don't think I 
would ever find myself using this as a response. Why does nobody ever refer 
to bootstrap as a framework? The very definition of a framework (hey its 
Wikipedia, it must be true)

“In computer programming, an application framework consists of a software 
framework used by software developers to implement the standard structure 
of an application for a specific development environment.”

So to me I would have 2 answers if someone ever asked me "What is 
bootstrap" 

Short Answer: A framework for kick starting development of a web 
application. 

Long Answer: Bootstrap is a framework from Twitter for kick starting 
development of a web application. It includes CSS & HTML for typography, 
forms, buttons tables, girds and more. It also contains popular JavaScript 
plugins for modal dialog boxes, tooltips, carousel, drop downs and much 
more. 

I would love your thoughts on this and if you disagree please let me know. 
This is my first presentation on Bootstrap and I want to make sure its a 
good one.
