Yes amazing, I used to have Instructables in my rss reader but had to remove it due to the articles being totally unreadable.
Instructables has pulled a 'scribd'.
Yes. I had seen that led cube instructable a few times, but the complete redesign of the instructables page design is where the real interest is in this page. No ads, all of the pictures and step links and the top. Simple, accessible and usable.
They are stealing content from instructables.com -- how is that excellent?
Check the URL. It doesn't look like it's stealing content, just reformatting it. Like Readability for Instructables.
I work for a company that does content protection, and even I fully support this instructabliss... Instructables has become very cluttered and unusable.
It's excellent because people have contributed a lot of great content to instructables, but it's unreadable with instructable's current design. ("Log in to see more than one sentence!")
