This looks like a great redesign overall. I'm still not entirely sold on how sheets are any better than breadcrumbs, other than being a different UX implementation of the same concept. But I'll adopt a wait-and-see attitude. Playing around with it is definitely needed for something like this.
The one thing I will say though: every link better be "openable" in a new tab. While I love that you're helping me focus on one thing on the page, we're multitasking beasts at heart. If I can't Cmd-Click anything in that interface I'm going to be quite disappointed. But if you're using HTML5's pushState I'm assuming you have that already taken care of ;)
- sstephenson 15y agoRest assured, you can cmd-click everything!

- rhizome 15y agoI had a similar thought, but from watching the video it appears that the sheet metaphor is just that: they aren't modal popup/overs, but separate pages, just with the page layering as a part of the design. how that interacts with pushState I don't know, but it seems significant to notice that they aren't just a series of overlayers but distinct pages. I wonder if they're going to tie this together with their recent "static pages site" so as to either cache or memorialize via conversion to statics, or as a performance hack. In Rails, something like: after_update :generate_static_page
- bonzoesc 15y agoIt's orthogonal to pushState.
