They just made one of my favorite sites, Gizmodo useless.

Cheers, It would be incredibly hard to make me stop going to Gizmodo an Life Hacker(browser thru it the whole day for as long as I remeber) but YOU DID IT !

Usability-wise they're horrible. I'm not so sure it's going to hurt their rankings though. They're using the #! in URL structure to conform with Google's AJAX crawling rules [1] and Google is linking to the pages in the SERPs.

Now they have screwed themselves in an entirely different way. Google has indexed their staging server [2] which is now password protected and outranking their site [3].

Ironic that their front-page article has a montage of cans of Coca Cola CLASSIC.
