Our PC Mag Network sister site, ExtremeTech just got a major facelift, one which, as the site's editor, Lloyd Case eagerly points out at PCMag.com, is far more than simple aesthetics. Says Lloyd:

We wanted the changes to be deep and far reaching. We also realized that part of this would come from sharpening our focus. To that end, the new ExtremeTech will offer more DIY (Do It Yourself) stories, tips, how-tos, and reviews--everything you need to help you take control of your tech. With this in mind, let's now take a quick tour of the new ExtremeTech.

There's more intuitive navigation; a new How To section, which features Built-Its, tips, and tricks; and Lab Notes, which offers "quick-and-dirty pieces" of information. And of course that's all just for starters. If you're a regular ExtremeTech reader, we think you'll find the beta site to be a lot cleaner and more intuitive. If you've never checked it out, this is the perfect excuse.
