The UI needs some big improvements indeed. I toyed around with the site and although I could find my way around when just clicking through some topics, I am still confused as to what the structure of the site is (other than a list of topics, with a list of examples, not hierarchically structured or Q&A style or anything else that would make sense). I'm not sure I could find anything on here if I didn't get there via Google already.

personally, google is how I always end up on stack overflow, so I'd imagine the same will be true for this product.

19 out of 20 times, true. However I totally get how SO is structured and contributing answers to people's question is something everyone gets. And if I want to find other questions (like for marking a duplicate, or researching a topic) I can use the search and tag system easily. Somehow the structure of this documentation area is not very clear to me.
