   Ok, have not seen the video, but since 2 others have commented on the new design here, I'll do too.

   First of all, I wanted to mention that the technical implementation of this site is really good. It does, what it's supposed to do (well) and nothing else.

   So this is on design only:

   To be honest, I liked the old design much better.
   First: The color arrangement of the old design had a cool, precious look to it. The gray-green looks kind of cheap.

   Second: The 3 column design makes the site hard to use. Before, it was intuitively clear where what was. Now it's kind of confusing.
   (it was 2 column-design before, was it not?)

   Third but not too important: The font-size of this textarea is way too small. Hard to read.

   I'm designing sites too from time to time, and I always appreciate blunt criticism. Hope I'll still be allowed to suggest docs. ;-)

   Regards, Code7R

   This guide to Greek philosophy is very enlightening. It's is surprising to see how after more then 2500 years Greek thought is still very relevant in dealing with problems we face today. Issues such as how do we determine what is the truth, how to be happy and how to have self-confidence are very practical and useful things to learn. Great wisdom never goes out of fashion.

   I wonder if he actually ended up going to dinner with the young lady at the end of the Schopenhauer video. Nonetheless, a brilliant series on some little-explored corners of philosophy.
