Since TL is not reddit and circle-jerking is highly discouraged, I'd like to chime in on my approval of Kotaku's layout. I like it a lot. Having a sidebar that is mindful of your location on the page and the size of your window is a good thing.

In UI design, one of the key considerations is how to maximize your use of the screen real-estate. Not to bash TL and other popular websites, but when the content on a page gets to be too long, the amount of screen real-estate being used is roughly 50%. The far left margins and the far right margins are just empty white-space.

I think this hate of their redesign is mostly as a result of people being averse to good change. In 2 months, people will probably be squawking about how good gawker's design is.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.

The problem is that it's not just a change in look (to one that's less appealing to me, not everything has to be an app and I liked the individual brands, personally), but a change in the way the sites are used. Digg made a change like that too, ask Reddit how well that worked out.

Not to mention that the code behind it is still a broken mess and they really need to do something about the scrolling. Click around for a bit, see if you remember where you were. I'm not even going to start about the iframe feel, though those would likely have been faster.

It's a gamble, literally in fact. Time will tell how well it works out, but it has nothing to do with circle-jerking or just dismissing any change. Though I'm glad at least some people like it

The side margins really don't contain less space now btw.
Change to MY nostalgia? UNACCEPTABLE! Monkey paaaw!

You can add ca. to kotaku.com and remove the !# in the URL and it will have the old look.

Nadas real APM is probably that high from time to time. He peaks 400+ in intense battles.. Then again, it's Nada we're talkin about :d
Remember that sc2 APM is measured with the game speed, so it's slower than your atual APM.

I pretty much hate the new Kotaku layout, but nonetheless, good read. Hope to see more mainstream gaming media sites take notice of eSports... G4tv has, GameSpot has (to a small extent), PCWorld has totally jumped on the bandwagon. Now we just need Kotaku, 1UP, and others to follow
I do stuff in eSports

I know, but to cite that as within an average value is just ignorance.
